I have a problem with Sum(Above) in a table - however
hard I try, the 'Sum' just returns the message '!Invalid
Character Setting'. Does anyone know what is going wrong?

(a) Did you insert it by using Table Formula or Insert
Field Formula? (you can't just type in the text)

(b) Is it a complicated table? I think Sum(Above) only
works well if none of the cells are [or were ever]
merged.
(c) Try creating a very simple 1 column, 3 row table with
no formatting. In the first row type 2. In the cell
below, type 2. In the cell below do Table Formula Sum
(Above) and click OK. the value in row 3 should be 4.
