Default How do I write a macro that updates a calculated field in a form?

I have a small table in a WORD form with a simple formula that I would like
to have automatically calculate for the end users. The formula is SUM(above).
I don't want the users to have to lock & unlock the form, but can not figure
out a macro to unlock, calculate the SUM or insert the formula, and re-lock
the form. The macro stops recording as soon as I click the lock form button.
Also, can I create a "button" within the form for the macro? Any
suggestions? Thank you.
