Hi, I have a PDF form that has a number of calculations that end in a total that could be a positive or negative $ amount. I would like to have separate boxes (one for any positive numbers & one for negatives). How do I formate each separate box to automatically accept the appropriate + or - number in its box?
Thanks very much.

If this is an AcroForm, the easiest way to do it is to place identical calculation scripts in both positive and negative text boxes. Then use the Format event to blank out the value in the field that doesn't apply. Take a look at this article:

If it's for a LiveCycle form, then use a hidden 3rd field to do the calculation and assign values to the visible fields based on the result.
