Default Number Fields in Tables for Fill-in Forms

I'm new to Windows 2007. I've created numerous fill-in forms using Word
2003. Using Word 2003 you could change the properties of a text field so
that it would accept numbers only. Using Word 2007 if you insert a text box,
the properties don't allow you to format the text into a number. I'd like
user to fill in hours worked per day. My formula at the bottom of the column
will add those hours so that I will know the hours worked per week. The
formula to add the numbers above isn't the problem...it's the per day hours
number field that I can't seem to be able to figure out how to format.

Default Number Fields in Tables for Fill-in Forms

Are you using the legacy form fields or content controls?
