What are you attempting to do? If you want to perform a calculation and set the result to a field on the current form... yes, the mechanism for that is a Set Fields.
What other mechanism would you need? If you want to perform a calculation and set the result to a field on a different form... well, you would be using a Push Fields operation for that and you can do a calculation in a Push Fields operation. If you want to perform a calculation as part of a qualification to do something like compare the result of two fields to a third field, you can specify the calculation as part of the qualification itself. Now, that qualification would be in a Set Fields or Push Fields operation if in workflow or in the query that you are issuing to the system if it is a direct query. If you want to perform a calculation to compute a position or something to use in a Function call, you can perform the calculation within the function parameter itself. Of course, that function would be in a Set Fields or Push fields operation. If this doesn't answer the question, you need to help us out by explaining what you are trying to accomplish and where it is you want to be able to use a calculation. Essentially, you should be able to use a calculation directly wherever it is appropriate to have a calculation.
