Default locking word table cells while auto-updating fields

Hi,

Got a wee problem, hope someone can help!

Please see the attached word file.

I've created a table inside a word doc, which contains two formulas. Both function perfectly. If I change any of the values in the peach coloured cells, all I have to do is right click / 'update fields' on both grey coloured cells containing the formulas, and it will update the values accordingly.

However, I want users to input their own values into the peach coloured cells without having to right click / 'update fields'. Is there any way the formulas in the grey cells can automatically update after user input? I also want to lock/protect the grey cells so users cannot edit the formulas.

Using excel sadly isn't an option.

any help would be much appreciated.



Thanks..
