    We have a word document with an embedded table. In this table we have one cell being calculated from other cells, another cell into which a value is being entered, and a third cell that is simply adding the calculated cell to the input cell. The result is inconsistent and incorrect. Has anyone has any similiar issues?

    Hi Joe,

    Without more details about the table structure, the actual formulae bing used, etc, it's hard to say. Are the cells with the formulae all being updated following the data changes? Do any of the formulae use SUM(ABOVE) for ranges spanning empty/text cells?
