I know how to insert a formula in a Word 2007 table cell. However,
when I update another cell, I cannot get the cell where the formula
resides to be updated.

As a simple example, a vertical column might have 10 in cell 1,
then 10 in cell 2, and my Sum formula gives me a 20. This is fine.
Now, when I chanage
one of the 10 cells to 20 I cannot get the 20 total cell to change
to 30. In
Word 2003, you could do a right mouse in the formula cell, and it
would update the total. How is this update done in Word 2007?

Steve
