Is it possible to automatically add columns in tables in word?
In a previous position I was sure that there was a way to add columns in a
table by highlighting the column or rows of figures and the total would show accross the bottom of the window bar. Has anyone ever heard of this? |

You're thinking of Excel.

No, he's thinking of Tools | Calculate, as suggested by a previous poster
(see http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/General/ToolsCalculate.htm). This command puts the total in the status bar and on the Clipboard. It works for tabbed columns as well as table columns, and (most significantly) it works despite empty rows. -- Suzanne S.

Possibly. But I think it more likely it's a recollection of Excel, that
automatically displays, in the status bar, the total of any selected range. "Suzanne S. Barnhill" wrote in message ...
