WORD TEMPLATE

[LW]

I created a WORD template with a table in it and I have, on the last line of
the table, formula {=SUM(ABOVE)} (I tried {=SUM(D210)} also). The formula
does not seem to do the auto sum when I do a new word document, select the
template and enter values on D2 thru D10 cells. Any ideas?

Thanks in advance!

Did you remember to Update Fields?

AutoSum in Word is not dynamic as it is in Excel: it's a "cold" field, you
must update it to see the new result.
