the computed field works excellently.

There's a very simple code snippet that shows how to add two fields together: http://drupal.org/node/149233 and put a $ in front of the result.

Suppose the answer is a large number? How would you format the result so that it has commas such as $1,000,000.00?

Thanks.

Problem solved. Sorry for such a lame post. I'm learning PHP slowly.

In case anybody else is interested. Here's how you put punctuation into the display of a CCK computed field.

In the display section replace the default:

$display = $node_field_item['value'];

with:

$display = '$' . number_format($node_field_item['value'] , 2, '.', ',');

To turn 10000.00 into $10,000.00
