Perform mathematical calculations with merge fields
I have a letter that we created in Word 2000 that I need to update. I can't
open the document in Word 2003, so I'm recreating it. The document contains several merge fields. I want to perform a multiplication of a merge field (which is a number) by a set number (in the example it's 35). I used the {=35*{mergefield xxx}\#,0.00\*Mergeformat} in Word2000, but I can't get it to calculate in Word 2003. I know how to get the field codes - I just can't get the multiplication to work. Also, I have another calculation to do - that is a subtraction. It subtracts another mergefield from the results of the formula listed above. Any help would be appreciated. |
