In Word 2000, I could type in a column of numbers in a document (NOT a table), high-light the column, hit a formula icon in the toolbar, and that would give me the sum of the numbers, period. The icon would put the sum in the clipboard, from which I could add it to the column. I can't remember how I set that up, but I used the same icon that 'formula' in the Table menu uses, a striped fish.
In Word 2003 I can't figure out how to do that without creating (or inserting) a table in the word document. I don't want to do that. I'm trying to keep it simple. The Formula command and the Autosum command work fine in a table, but I don't want a table!
