Question

For each column, row 4 should equal that column in row 1 + row 2 - row 3

asked on June 20, 2024

I'm using Laserfiche Forms Professional Version 11.0.2212.30987.

I have a fixed table, where in column 3, I need to add row 1 and row 2 and subtract row 3, and display the answer in row 4. 

I tried the following, but received a "Calculation contains a circular reference." error:

=IF(ROW()=4,
INDEX(Leave_Credits_Table.Vacation,1)+INDEX(Leave_Credits_Table.Vacation,2)-INDEX(Leave_Credits_Table.Vacation,3)
)

I realize it would be easier to just change my columns to rows and vice versa, but I need to try to match an existing PDF form.

Calculations can not differentiate between recursive and circular and will not allow either.  Only javascript can accomplish this task. See post for more details
