The problem may be you have you field set to something other than "none" or "number" which would account for the error message.
"Text Field Properties" > "Select Format Category"

Louise-
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

I have a few forms on which I need to do division, at several locations, but when I add the JavaScript for division for the appropriate field, I get an error message for every field before I reach the fields used in the calculation. The message is the following
"The value entered does not match the format of the field (Field Name)".
I have tried the solution recommended in the Tue, 15 May 2001 discussion, Subject [PDF-Forms] Blank Forms?????? but the same scenario occurs.
I have Acrobat 5.0
