Filemaker Sending Email on Calc Change Problem

Thought I had solved the problem with setting a trigger to a calculated field (which sends an email).  I compare this calculate field (Real Estate CAP rate) to an Old_CAP field and if they are equal, it is not supposed to send the email.  However, every time I click into an income or expense field or basically anytime it recalculates, it doesn't seem to recognize that is equal with the old field if no changes are made.  Any solutions?  Currently, my trigger is not on the CAP field, but OnRecordCommit on the Layout.
