Yes, the sample file works fine.

I even opened the sample database, copied the calculation, pasted it into my own data field calculation and replaced them with my own data field names. I get the same error. The only thing that I can see is that my data field names are not exactly like the ones in the program (e.g, I have Last Name instead of Surname).
