When I create a table in word, and have numerical data in it, the formula
function does not return a result. It gives me the actual formual not the
numerical answer?? I also notice that when I creat a footer in my doc and use
the insert page number or date it will actually writes out the date in not in
a date format???

Press Alt+F9 to switch between display of field codes and field results.
