Calculated value randomly displaying incorrectly.

    Hello,

    My form, at the URL listed, does not consistently render / display a calculated value correctly every time a collection of associated checkbox options are either checked or unchecked.  I've provided a pic and highlighted what I'm referring to. This bug seems to only show up if the user plays around with the checkbox options. If you select & deselect various options in a random pattern or grouping, the highlighted section "(2 Cleaners for xx - xx hours)" doesn't always display in accordance with it's associated calculated field.  The field itself renders a correct calculated value but the displaying of that value isn't always accurate. (the value & the display of the value don't always match)

    The first section of the pricing matrix is based on Square Footage, Bedrooms & Bathrooms.  These three, regardless of what's selected and how much you change things around, render accurately.  It's only when you then begin selecting & deselecting and playing around with the "Seasonal Extras" checkbox options that the "(2 Cleaners for xx - xx hours)" begins to have problems.

    Any suggestions?  I've tried various configurations for the value... "render as text" vs leaving it unchecked; "1 decimal vs 2 decimals"; rounding vs no rounding, etc... nothing seems to keep it from displaying incorrectly when the checkbox options begin to get played with.

    Thanks in advance for you're help.

    Shawn

    I checked your form and I was able to see the issue you are referring to. I also noticed that you are using conditions to calculate on a textbox field and pass the value to the text field. Can you try using a calculion field instead?

    Here's a cloned version of your form where I used a calculation field for the TeamHrsLow/TeamHrsHigh.

    I also added them to text field for the calculations at the bottom so you can compare between the result from the textbox and result from the calculation field.
