I have a customized column and I would like to multiply
two or three values in the same cell and be able to see
the subtotal in the same cell.
Please advise

A custom field can only return the value of the formula. It does not allow
direct input.
To do this you can insert other fields and use the formula to return the
value.

ie: use number1 and number2 for input, number3 to return their product using
the formula [number1]*[number2]

Hi Jack,
Thank you for your respond.
I have already "Number 1" for value entry and "Number 7"
for the product based on the micro. This micro is summing
the valuesfor the the filterd projects by the date range
and I am absolutely okay with it.
With respect to my problem, is there any way to customize
the customized column "number 1" to allow me to multiply
two numbers? Maybe I should create another column let
say "number 3" and link the product "number 3" to
my "number 7" which has the micro?
Please advisae.
Regards,
Majid

Hello Majid,
Have you tried this formula in the Number3 field?
[Number1]*[Number7]

Hope this helps,

A column can NOT be used for both value entry and calculation.
(well, it can but only in the case that the summary task is allowed to not
use a formula - this is not applicable to your situation)
So if you want to enter two values and calculate a third, you need to use
three columns.
