Activated on a SharePoint FldEdit.aspx page this code will attach itself to the Formula textarea.
#####features
- On every keyup event it will (try to) save the Formula and provide immediate feedback.
- Paste plain JavaScript code in an empty formula field and wrap in Formula strings with the action button.
Why I added this? See www.viewmaster365.com/#/How - The OK button is no longer needed, because a correct Formula is always saved.
This code only works on existing Calculated Columns,
it will not work if you have just created a new column, save it first
###Version History

##Installation Since this code executes within your browser I have not included the Bookmarklet. Built it your self so you understand the security implications:
- Copy the code from VM365_CalcMaster.js
- Paste it at the Bookmarkleter (use default settings, no need to include jQuery)
##OR ###Save the Javascript file to your own server
- Download the VM365_CalcMaster.js script file to a Library within your SharePoint/Office365 environment

-
Right click in the Favourites/Bookmark bar to Add a New Page (on IE add the WebPage as Favorite then overwrite the address with the JavaScript below)

javascript:(function(){var url='YOUR_URL_HERE',jsCode=document.createElement('script');jsCode.setAttribute('src', url);document.body.appendChild(jsCode);}())
