Default Read cell from one table into another

Word 2010



I have given a table the name TEST.

I now want to refer to this this table in a table called TEST2.

I have the following values in TEST table...

A2 = 1
B2 = 2
C2 = 3

I want the second table called TEST2, cell B3 to show the value in table TEST, cell B2.

I have put the cursor in TEST2, B3 cell. I clicked Formula on the Layout tab and entered the following in the Formula field.

=SUM(TEST B2)


When I click [OK] I get the following error...

!Undefined Bookmark, TEST

The error message suggests you haven't actually created a bookmark named 'TEST'.

Default Thanks I just figured that out...

I found the info in Microsoft Word Field Math's Tutorial. I thought I still had to refer to the title of the table not the bookmark. My mistake. thanks
