Word does not do intelligent copying. Use Excel and link the table into
Word.

Lets say I have a table with 4 columns - desc, price, qty, total

In the first row I put a formula in the 4th column to multiply the
price and the qty - so far so good.

Now how do I copy that formula to every row?

If I cut and paste then it retains the reference to price and qty in
the first row instead of the same row as the formula (as excel would
do). This means I have to manually enter a formula for every single
row - is there any way around this?
