Default Calculation Button in Word tables

Good day folks.

Thank you for taking the time to read my post. I am new to MS words so please have a little patience.

I am creating an electronic form in word that employees need to fill in.



Part of the form is a is a matrix I made with tables.

The matrix is to help employees figure out risk values in the company.

Since this is a electronic form only I want to automate the process where for example a command button in the 5x5 cell is selected, the result of 25 must be displayed in another cell in the document or table.

Is it possible to do this with the command button for example or is there anther way I can achieve this

Many thanks again for reading

Without more detail of what you're trying to do, it's hard to give specific advice. However for an indication of the kinds of things that are possible, see:

Good day Macropod thanks for the help.

I have attached the form I am creating.

Basically I want them to be able to click first click one of the letters from A to B. That selection must then be displayed in Cell on the page, preferable just above where it says severity.

Then they need to click on the numerical matrix below and their selection must be displayed next to the letter they have chosen.

Hope that is making more sense

Thanks again for help

Hi Barry,

It's not at all clear what you're trying to achieve.

Where are these letters? All I can see is A-E in boxes under 'Severity' and the A-E in the footer table, at the start of each line under 'Probablility'.

So you want the cell next to 'Reporter assessment S+PxD' to display, say, B10?
