If you are protecting the document for filling in forms, in place of B2 and
D2, use the bookmark names that are assigned to the formfields in those
cells and set the Calculate on Exit property for each of those formfields.

I created a simple table inventory form (in Word2000) that sums columns
and
gives me a multiplication product result at the end of each row (i.e.
column
headings: item #, Qty, Descr, Cost, Total) (and the old formula is
"=product(B2,D2)." For the life of me I cannot find out how to make the
thing work in a Word 2007 document. (Note: This table is in the middle of
another form that does not lend itself to Excel). Any suggestions on how
to
get this thing to work
