But I never override the calculated fields myself; rather I mess with the underlying terms and let WC calc the final totals. It makes it more flexible to do interesting things (like free shipping on item B only if you order > $999) by having hidden line items that enable that feature (think negative unitShipCost).John-- John Peacock Director of Information Research and Technology Rowman & Littlefield Publishing Group 4720 Boston Way Lanham, MD 20706 301-459-3366 x.5010 fax 301-429-5747 ------------------------------------------------------------- This message is sent to you because you are subscribed to the mailing list
