Hi @BRRLL99 , is Tool #2 the formula tool you are changing? It looks to me like there is something going wrong with your Action tool configuration, leading to the formula being updated to an invalid one.

Some screenshots of your action tool configuration and your formula tool would be useful.

@BRRLL99 for this issue, the best way might be to get rid of the action tool altogether. You can link the list boxes directly to the "Q" anchor of the formula tool (see below). Then, replace the formula with the one currently in your action tool.

could please let me know the reason 

Why action tool was removed?

@BRRLL99 , you had already written a formula that dynamically updates when the list box values change. The formula tool can deal with this directly, without an action tool inbetween.
