Calcs on Calcs

I have a field that calculates an amount based on what is in another calc field. When the one field changes the second field doesn't calculate. What am I doing wrong?

Is it a calculation or a number with an auto-enter calculation result? If it's the latter, make sure you deselect 'do not replace existing value for field' in the auto-enter options.

The one that is not calculating is a straight calculation number.

Does the calculation include only local fields or related ones also? Does it refresh if you enter find mode, then enter browse mode, or move to another record and return to the original one?
