Problem

Solutions: A customer working with Math wanted to add additional subtotals and totals to existing information. To accomplish this he added a number with a "t" in front of it (t20) for an additional subtotal and a T in front of it (T20) for an additional total.
For example:      aaaaa 10.00
                  bbbbb 10.00
                  total 20.00+
                  ccccc t10.00 this subtotal was given by the lowercase t
                  total 30.00=
                  ddddd T10.00 this is the total given by uppercase T
       GRAND TOTAL 40.00*

The customer wants to add tax to the * number (the grand total). This can be done by the following steps:
1.      Block the columns and convert to a table (Alt-F4, Alt-F7, 2, 1, 1).
2.      Insert two new rows. In the first row, type in the other number (e.g., sales tax). In the second row, create a formula to add the grand total to this other number.
3.      Calculate.
4.      Exit out of Table Edit, and delete the Table Definition code [Tbl Def:].

If any changes are made, the user will need to go back into Table Edit to recalculate.
