Table Math in Word Updating it

By default, when you change the value of a cell in Excel, formulas that include that cell are updated automatically.

In Word, formula cells are NOT updated automatically.

If you change a value in your table, hereʹs what you need to do:‐

1. Right‐click on the formula result (On the actual figure displayed, not just anywhere in the table).

2. Choose Update Field from the context‐sensitive pop‐up menu.

Alternatively, click on the field (So its value displays with a grey background, assuming you havenʹt changed field display options) and then press F9.

__**Note:‐**__

Often a cell is included in more than one formula, such as a row and column total.

In such cases, select the entire table, and then press F9.
