you are doing a text concatination.. you need to convert them to numbers first try val( [construction hold back amount]) +val ([guarantee hold back amount])
 
Thank you for the fast reply and it worked like a charm.
You saved alot of grey hair

A good reason to NOT store numerical values as text in the table.
