How do I multiply non-adjacent columns in a Word table?
I have a table with five columns:
Col-1: Item name Col-2: Per unit cost Col-3: Modifier (if cost is per-hour or per-other unit) Col-4: Quantity Col-5: Invoice Cost The problem I am having is that I am trying to multiply Col-2 by Col-4 in a field in Col-5 and I can't get it to work. I am using the "=PRODUCT(LEFT)" formula for Col-5. The formula does work when I put a number in Col-4, so this makes me think the formula only works for adjacent columns. Is there a formula I can use to acheive what I want without using literal cell references (i.e '=PRODUCT(B2,D2)'). I can't use this because we have all the items on the table and the salespeople just delete the ones they don't want in there. Thanks! |
