Mike,

The only way I could make it work is to add a "Calculated value" control in the form, and set the formula >> item properties >> and select your calculated fields.

Also make sure you set the calculated value to calculate in View Mode.

Hope that helps!

Hello Prasanna,

This is the list I am working with...

Screen-shot: Calculated fields do not appear in drop-down to add value.

Not sure how to handle this at this point.

Appreciate your help,

Mike

what's the reason you are trying to change (aka. "connect to") a field automatically calculated by sharepoint? that's not possible.

if you want to read a value from list field you have to configure your formula where you will have available your field.
