Jezebel,

Thanks for your response. I did find information regarding IF statements in
MS Word and I finally figured out how to use the bookmarks (you mentioned) to
reference the value in the field. In the help system, it talks about
specifying multiple conditions that I cannot get to work. Even their example
code does not work.

Thanks,

You can't do this sort of thing in Word. Calculations are limited to very
limited calculations like SUM(ABOVE). If you're really keen, you could
bookmark D16 and use REF fields; but it's probably better to embed an Excel
table.

I am trying to calculate grades based on values in a table. Here is the
Excel formula:
=IF(D16899,"A",IF(D16799,"B",IF(D16699,"C",IF(D 16599,"D",IF(D16500,"F"))))).

Unfortunately, this formula does not work in Word. Could someone walk me
through how to reference a cell, perform a calculation on it, and then
return
a single letter value?
