I did not copy the successful fields, no. I typed them out to make the parent field. The reason being, that I tried pasting into these fields in the past few days working with this, and found that any time I do a paste into a field, it pastes over the entire field-- obliterating anything else that was there in the field. Seeing this failure of copy-paste to paste into the field, I had to leave behind the notion of copy-paste in this setting. I was putting my cursor in the exact place in the field where I wanted to copy-paste, and still I was finding that this happened. So I abandoned copy-paste.


1. Am I doing something wrong in my attempts with copy-paste?


2. This parent field/calculated field is not a lengthy thing to type out. It should work perfectly well even if I type it out, shouldn't it?
