When you enter values in separate cells in Excel and then highlight them, excel will automatically display the sum and average of these numbers in the bottom right hand corner of the screen.

I was wondering if there is any way to access this functionality (or something similar) on Word (even through the use of add-ons).

I am aware of the formula function, but that is (imo) an inconvenience to use. I am searching for a more elegant way to total selected values in a table.

If you know any way to achieve this, any help will be greatly appreciated

Thank you in advanced!
