    Hi Francis,

    To be able to calculate a field, you need to transfer the value of  the radio button to a short text entry.

    Then add a condition in UPDATE/CALCULATED FIELD

    in your DO statement select Copy a Field's value

    and From: select your if statement and TO: is your short text entry.

    Now it will out put the defined value of the radio button.

    To add it to your form calculation go to widget settings and

    ADD FIELD. Select your short text entry that holds your values

    After than you add each short text entry.
