I figured it out, macro shows G:7 but really is G7 address. Guess you
cannot copy formula to columns then like in Excel?

Thank you Suzanne, but now I am having syntax errors.
I tried the =G:7*4.5 and {=G:7*4.5} but that did not work. How do you
perform the calculation for G:7 * 4.5? I am beginning to think I should
convert the document to Excel.

Naming conventions for rows and columns are the same in Word as in Excel,
but the cell addresses can be harder to figure out. To facilitate this,
you
may want to download the TableCellHelper macro from

I have a table in word which has a couple of columns headers "Number of
hours" and "Tuition". I want to use the number of hours * 4.5 to obtain
the
tuition. I can easily do it in Excel =G4*4.5 but I do not understand
how
you obtain the proper cell addresses in Word to perform this. The
columns
are adjacent so is there another way?

Thanks for information.
