Math on merge fields?
I have a number of merge fields that I need to perform math on. How can I do
this in my Word document? I basically need to subtract one or more fields from another. (ie. tuition - deposit) Any help would be appreciated! -Heather

Use a formula field e.g.
{=({Mergefield Tuition} - {Mergefield Deposit})} see also http://www.gmayor.com/formatting_word_fields.htm -- Graham Mayor - Word MVP My web site www.gmayor.com Word MVP web site http://word.mvps.org Hlabonte wrote: I have a number of merge fields that I need to perform math on.
