Default Copy a Table Formula to Another Cell

When first pasted the number, 47 in your example, will appear but if you
then press F9 to update the (new) fields, do you still see 47?

Enjoy,

Hello Tony:

I posted the question after trying what you described below several times.
Unless I'm doing something wrong, Word copies the RESULTS of the formula
as
opposed to copying the formula itself into every cell. For example, if the
formula I want to copy is =Sum(LEFT), instead of copying that, it will
copy
the number 47 which is that value in the first cell in the column.

After copying, just select the table column and Paste - the formula will
be
pasted into each cell in the column. After pasting you may want (with the
column still selected) to press F9 to update all the newly added fields.
