Problem

Solutions: A customer was trying to add a column of numbers in a table. He had centered the numbers using Shift-F6. When he chose 5 for Math and 4 for + in Table Edit, he got 0.00 as his total. A table formatted exactly the same way in the 05/31/91 release totaled correctly. The customer deleted the center code from the cells and in Table Edit chose Format, Column, Justify and Center (2, 2, 3, 2) to center the columns, then recalculated, and the totals came out just fine. Apparently, the 11/06/89 release does not let you total numbers that have been centered using Shift-F6. Another customer encountered this same problem when using a decimal align tab. Using the table's decimal align feature corrected the situation. *This information is given strictly as a troubleshooting option.
