Formulas in Word 2003

Created a doc with text form fields. Want to multiply text form field
with a bookmark named Text7 with form field with a bookmark named
Text8. Both of those fields are coded as numbers. I have a formula in
text form field with a bookmarked named Text9 as {=SUM(Text7*Text8)}
and can't get a result. :mad: Tried it without the {} and still
nothing. Any help would be appreciated!

Man of little hair,

If you want a product (Text7 "time" Text8) then SUM has no
place in your formula.

If your are using a textfield to hold the product then
double click the field, click the down arrow on the Type
window and select "calculation." In the expression
window, type =Text1*Text2

Double click Text7 field and check "calculate on exit" do
the same for Text8.
