Default Calculations in Word 2003 Table

Tried asking this in another newsgroup but they suggested that I come to a
Word Newsgroup to find my answer faster...

Been asked by a user who is looking to create a table in Word to find a way
to get some of the cells to become (like Excel) calculatable (if there is
such a word).

I first thought that copying the cells from a worksheet (with formulae in)
and do a Edit Paste Special MS Excel worksheet object...

It looked like it worked ok, but that was not what the user wanted since
they only wanted one cell to input a figure in, another one to input a
percentage and a third (all in seperate cells in the Word table) which would
display the outcome of the formula (=A1*A2%)...

Also tried a Nested Table, but that is just a copy and paste of the single
cell with no formula or border and so doesn't change when the other cells are
altered.

Are there any other methods? Or am I asking the impossible?
