From what I can tell, if I have a read only field, that field can't populate with the results of a Forms excel-style calculation. It has to be set to be modifiable. Do I have to use Javascript/JQuery to protect the field from user intervention?

If so, what's the script?

Hi there,

If you use Forms Calculation feature, you can mark a field to be read only at the same time, but you won't be able to modify the value through script because the value is calculated through the formula. If the referenced field value change, the formula will be triggered and re-calculate the result.
