Use despeckle blocks to indicate where people should write each character. "A Guide to Creating Machine-Readable Forms" recommends raster dots .39 pixels, and five times that space between each dot.

var ItemsCount = Field(“Total”).Items.Count;
var Sum = 0;
Field(“TotalAmount”).Value = Field(“TotalAmount”).Value.replace(” “,”“);
for( i = 0; i     Field(“Total”).Items.Item(i).Value = Field(“Total”).Items.Item(i).Value.replace(” “,”“);
    Sum = Sum + parseFloat(Field(“Total”).Items.Item(i).Value);
}
if (Sum != parseFloat(Field(“TotalAmount”).Value)) {
    CheckSucceeded = false;
    ErrorMessage = “Sum of values in Total column doesn’t match TotalAmount value”;  
    Field(“TotalAmount”).Suggest( Sum );
}
else {
    CheckSucceeded = true;
}

Zero Padding a Field to 10 characters- VB Script

dim cnt
dim iter
dim tempString
cnt = Len(me.Field("StoreNumber").Value)
tempString = me.Field("StoreNumber").Value
For iter = 0 to 10-cnt
tempString = "0" + tempString
Next

Adding Dashes to a Social Security Number - VB Script

Dim TempSSN
TempSSN = Mid( Me.Field("SSN").Value, 1, 3 )
TempSSN = TempSSN & "-"
TempSSN = TempSSN & Mid( Me.Field("SSN").Value, 4, 2 )
TempSSN = TempSSN & "-"
TempSSN = TempSSN & Mid( Me.Field("SSN").Value, 6, 4 )
Me.Field("SSN").Value = TempSSN

Concatenating Values from a column of a table into a single field - JScript

var ItemsCount = Field("TotalColumn").Items.Count;
var Sum = 0;
var tempField = "";
for( i = 0; i < ItemsCount; i++ ){
tempField = tempField + "," + Field("TotalColumn").Items.Item(i).Value;
}
Field("CombineField").Value = tempField;

Finding addresses is hard if the address is unlabeled.

Use this regular expression in a character string to help find addresses. Add post-search code that favors addresses near the top of the page ( FuzzyQuality: Top, {0,0,200,25000 }*dt; ), and/or near some address label ( FuzzyQuality: AddressLabel.Left - Left, {0,0,200,15000 }*dt; ), and you'll be acquiring addresses like you're Donald Trump.
