auto calculation in word 2002

G

I am trying to insert formulas in a password-protected MS Word 2002 table and
have it do an auto-calc. I have tried inserting a formula from both the "Text
Form Field Options" (using Type: Calculation) and Insert -> Field -> Formula.
I can get the field to update with the correct number when I right-click on
the cell and select "Update Field" while not password-protected, but cannot
get the cell to update automatically while password protected. Any guidance
from anyone would be greatly appreciated.

Be sure you have checked the "Calculate on exit" box in the Form Field
Options for each form field that contributes to the calculation.
