Hi ettadanreb,
On the 'totals' row for the column concerned, create a formula field by pressing Ctrl-F9. You should see a pair of field braces (ie '{ }'). Between the field braces, type =SUM(ABOVE), so that you end up with '{=SUM(ABOVE)}'. Then, with the properties of each formfield that contributes to the total, ensure the: .. data type is set to number, with the appropriate format; .. default value is set to whatever you want it to be (not empty); and .. 'calculate on exit' option is checked. When you're done, protect the form. -- Cheers macropod [Microsoft MVP - Word] "ettadanreb" wrote in message news ![]() I set up my fill in form as a table. The user types the numbers in the columns. I need the columns to add at the bottom of the column and give me a total. |
