Default Is it possible to make arithmetic calculations in a table?

My boss has just asked this question and I can't find any help online. Its
not something I've heard of before, but he's convinced he should be able to!

Search Word's Help for "formula," which will bring up the "Field codes: =
(Formula) field" topic, which is what you need. Although the Formula command
is on the Table menu, formula fields can be used anywhere; they're just
easier to use in tables (because you can use cell references).
