Allow user to add rows to Word '03 table....how?

[PMR]

I have a form which includes an 8 column table, each cell in the row has a Text Form Field with various lengths/output formats. My problems are two fold:

1) I need to allow users to insert additional rows if needed, the new row needs to contain the same empty Text Form Fields and I cant for life of me figure out how to do this.



2) I need to auto sum one of the columns by adding the bookmarks for each cell above in that column....if users add additional rows I'm lost.....

I've created a similar form for a similar purpose but that form has a fixed number of rows. I was unable to use {=SUM(ABOVE)} as some cells may remain blank. Adding default values to the cells was unacceptable for end users, so I went with blanks and writing an excessively long formula to add 15 bookmarks. Bulky and complicated, but it works...

I suppose users would need to make some condition "True" (entering "Y" in a Text Field, clicking a button, something) and then have the new row appear, 1 row per one click.

Any suggestions are greatly appreciated.

See 'Add a row to a table in a protected form' at: http://www.gmayor.com/word_vba_examples.htm
For the summing problem, perhaps the simplest solution is to split the table (which will also make it easier to add the new rows), bookmark it, then use a formula field coded like:
{=SUM(MyTable C:C)}
where 'MyTable' is the bookmark name and 'C' is the column you want to sum.

Thank you, sir! I've been searching Word/Window forums for nearly a week, I don't know how I managed to not find that thread before. Also, thanks for the split table/code field advice, it is truly appreciated. I've actually read dozens of your replies to other users, when I saw your name in the response e-mail I read this morning, I was pleased knowing I would receive a helpful reply instead of another "I don't know how to answer your question so I would do something else...." answer that I've been getting elsewhere.

Thanks again!
