I often find that the last row (column) of my tables is a sum. And every time I change some numbers I need to re-add them all to compute the last row (column) again. If anyone has a way to automatically do this I would be happy to see it. Example: --------------- | Item 1 | 10 | | Item 2 | 20 | | Item 3 | 30 | I don't want to have to | ------ | -- | recompute this line | Total | 60 |-----> each time I change one --------------- of the above lines Maybe the way to do this is to have a spreadsheet that can output tbl input. Is there a generally available one to do this? Thanks- -- Ed Weiss ihnp4!iham1!spock --> Live Long and Prosper <--
