Help me on my Hw?!

[Predator Lark]

I tried posting the problem to the forums through the attachments but there was an error every time I tried to upload it. But it was in Word 2010 not Excel...I wish it was in Excel because I have used Excel all throughout college but I had never made Calculations on Word...=p I figured it out though...I will take you guys through the steps...
1. Go to File and hit options, go to Customize Ribbon and check the Developer Checkbox.
2. Go to the Developer Tab which is now on the Ribbon at the top of the Word Document and select Legacy Tools and find the Text Form Field.
3. Place the Insertion Point where you want the text field to be and then click the Text Form Field.
4. Right Click on the grey box that appeared where the insertion point was and find Properties.
5. Go into Properties and change the text box into a number format.
6. Repeat these steps on the 20 other boxes that had to be done. (Can't highlight all of them at the same time because it only puts one text field...)
7. To add one of the field boxes with a different field box go back into Properties find the Expression Text box and enter "=Box1+Box2" or whatever the boxes are named

Now they expect someone to know how to do that with no prior knowledge.

Anyway thanks everyone for trying to help as much as possible =)

Me either, that is why I didn't become an astronaut and became an accountant instead.

Yeah, good choice on that one Sumac! Stayed as far away as possible from numbers!

No this is in Microsoft Word 2010 also sorry i forgot to mention that...I have a table that has 3 columns...the last two columns have titles such as

To Airport: From Airport:
Miles driven: Mileage:
Number of Nights: Amount per night:
Number of Days: Amount per day:
Number of Days: Amount per day:
Number of Days: Amount per day:
Qty: Amount:
Qty: Amount:
Qty: Amount:

and it literally just says Apply number format...does it have to do with the macro that its having me use?

I would say just try and hook up with eGO's very Own Sumac!:biggrin_old:
