Crystal Reports Formula: No Errors Found, but will not save?

[former_member1114617]

I wrote 2 formulas and am attempting to combine them (multiply). The first formula is numeric. The second formula is text based. Although the second formula is a texted based "user value" field, the output is always numeric. Is there a way to combine them to produce a numeric total?

As long as the field is Numeric text the function ToNumber(numerictextfield) will return a number and can be used in any mathematical formula.
