calculating value of field from other fields

robert parsons-3
Hi
 
im developing a form. One of the requirements is to generate a value of one field from the values of others on the same form.  My question is do i have to submit the other values before the value of the field will be calculated .  I'm using a mip with calculate attribute, but rather confused as to how it  works!

Robert,

No you don't need to submit data to perform calculations. You submit  
data only when you want to do so!
