NaN solution? From adding two variables..

[crift2012]

I need help, and though I have used flash for years professionally, I have not ever used it to add variables specifically for a spreadsheet-like purpose, so any noob advice I will gladly take...because I have only ONE tutorial that remotely comes close to creating a real-time or dynamic spreadsheet. So before I went off and tried to code the whole spreadsheet, I created a function for just two variables which are input boxes on the main timeline addition = {(weeklyOrderFastners),(weeklyOrderHydraulic)} converted the variables to Numbers and changed their variable name for simplicity.

Here is the code that sits on the main timeline.

function OrderTotals () {
one = Number(weeklyOrderFastners);
two = Number(weeklyOrderHydraulic);
weeklyOrderTotal = one + two;
currentNumOrdersPerWeek = Number(weeklyTotalOrders);

}

And I have this on the parameters on a component button (for testing) action on the stage.

Label=Calculate
Click Handler=OrderTotals

after I test the movies and put numbers in the variable fields and hit the button it returns a NaN.

So I am stumped I thought I converted the variable to a Number....
I have many more variables to add, so once again any noob info on this area of actionscript is greatly appreciated....

probably "weeklyOrderFastners" represents a textfield object, not the value you have entered in it. if that's the case, you should need something like weeklyOrderFastners.text instead.

any way, this doesnt really have to do anything with M&P, does it?
