as should aware, fields of same name share many properties , value 1 them. cannot use same names both fields. need give each field different name , set second field "read only". if fields numeric values, excludes items ssn,, dates, times, postal codes, etc, 1 can add value of first field second field using either "the field the sum of following fields:" or "simplified field notation". if first field has non-numeric values or leading zeros 1 needs either use "custom javascript calculation" or "on blur" action. since field  not need recalculated each time field changed, use "on blur" action of first field, second field changed when first field changed. copying focused field's value second field's value. possible script is:

 

// copy value of field second field;

this.getfield("other_field_name").value = event.value;

 

you have change "other_field_name" actual name of second field.
