I have a 2x2 table with text in the first column and calculations in the
second. I would like to know if there is a simple way (i.e. without a VBA
program) to enter the table cell contents into the body of the document. For
example (A1) sale 1 ... (A4)sale4, (A5) total sales, (B1) 100 ... (B4) 200,
(B5) 1000.
In the body enter.... recent sales have been (B4) and (A5) has been (B5)
... to read recent sales have benn 100 and total sales has been 1000.
The cell references would be used very many times in the body and changing
the table cells (text or numbers) should then be updated in the whole body of
the document.

the simplest solution would probably be to assign bookmarks to the
cells, and then insert cross-references to the bookmarks as needed.

Works provided fields are updated (switching to PrintPreview usually
takes care of that, as does CTRL-A followed by F9).
