    Is it possible to have a number field that increments by an user input number?

    ex: The “count field” says “10”. In the “add” field I add 5, hit the “add” button, then the “count field” changes to 15.

    Thanks

    Isn’t the count field a simple calculation field?

    count = count+add

    Would seem so, but count won’t let me add its own field in the formula.

    Ah, you are right. you need a third field for the result.

    Isn’t there an option for that under the Number type field to auto increment?

    My bad. I didn’t read the OP question properly.

    Perhaps an auto-incrementing Number field as part of your formula? When you add a new record, the auto-incrementing Number field would get the next value in sequence and then the calculation field would compute based on that.
