I have had this problem before too. Usually when dealing with
percentage fields. For some reason Acrobat doesn't like to divide
number fields in a percentage formatted field. If this is the case with
you, make the percentage field a numerical field and do this JS calc:
var a = this.getField("Field1")
var b = this.getField("Field2")
vvent.value = a.value / b.value * 100
This will make the percentage field appear in the format you may be
looking for. Remember to choose the format without a comma when setting
the numerical field. If this isn't the situation hopefully this rant
helped somebody out there who has had the same problem.
Thanks....Justice
