Default automatic sum calculation of cell values

Hi,

I have applied cell calcutation function "sum" to calcuate the sume of cell
values in a table column. But the sum is not updating automatically when I
change the cell values.

Is it possible to automatically update the sum?

Thanks!

Not in an ordinary table. In a protected form, a calculated field will
update automatically if "Calculate on exit" is enabled in each form field
that contributes to the calculation.

Fields in Word for the most part do not update automatically. You could
force an update with a macro such as the one used as an example at
