what do you expect to get?

you have not specified what ehnet1 or 2 are
and "a" returns 0 which is true cos you dont have anything.

so what do you want to do?

enhet1 = an input textbox
enhet2 = an input textbox
sum = a dynamic textbox

i want enhet1 + enhet2 to show at sum when i push the button where
the action are placed

on (release) {
sum = a;
enhet1 = b;
enhet2 = c;

a = (b + c);
}

hi man, check out the attached (rather rough) fla.
put something in enhet1 and enhet 2 and click the blue button.

sum then shows the "addition" of the 2 boxes.

(it is a text addition, remember. you can add a space by putting

enhet1+" "+enhet2

on the button.

if you are looking for numbers then it gets even more fun, as the input box returns a text value. so you have to turn the text into a number then add them. (or 1+2=12 and not 3)

hope this has helped a little
