Default Difference (and SUM) between two columns in a WORD table

Hi wdc,

If you'd prefer to use Word formula fields for this, some examples that
demonstrate how to use relative referencing can be found in my Word Field
Maths 'tutorial', at:
http://www.wopr.com/cgi-bin/w3t/show...?Number=365442
See under "Relative Referencing In Tables"

Cheers

...
I have a WORD2003 table -- with 4 columns (A, B, C, and D) and 500 rows --
with numbers in each cell in Columns A and B. How can I show the SUMs (An

+
Bn) in Coulmn 3 and the DIFFERENCEs (An - Bn) in Column 4?

Is there a way to do all the 500 sums (or differences) with just a few
keystrokes or do I have to repeat the basic calculation 500 times?

Thanks. ...wdc
