True. There must be some sort of simple error I am making. But I sure it is typed out correctly. Unless one just cannot type these things out, what I am doing should work. Now, one question here is that I notice the {} marks at the very beginning and end of the field are in bold, whereas the {} which I type when I put the two fields into the calculated field, are not in bold. Could this be a problem?

Excellent idea. I will try this on a copy of the document and see what happens. I would nonetheless very much like to get to the bottom of what is going wrong when I try to type those fields out myself.
