Problem

Symptoms: Deleting the total when using math in tables gives incorrect total.

Steps to Duplicate:
1.      Using Math within Tables, create a very small table, 3 rows 5 columns
2.      Type a 1, press Down Arrow), type a 2, press Down Arrow, then type a 3 and press Down Arrow
3.      Go into Table Edit (Alt-F7) and press 5, and 4
4.      Delete the first total and insert the number 4, then press Down Arrow and add again, it will give you a total of zero.
Where you inserted the number 4, it is still holding the code from adding +=. Solutions: This is working as designed. You need to delete the "+" in the cell, then go ahead with other calculations. The "+" needs to be deleted by using Ctrl-End or Backspace. Then you can make the formula changes that you want.
