Problem

Symptoms: Customers often want to delete formulas they have entered for different cells in the Table feature. In some cases they want to delete only the formula and leave the text of the cell or the amount that the formula has previously calculated, and in other cases, they would like to delete both the formula and the text (which would include any amount that was entered through calculation), and leave the cell blank. Solutions: To delete only the formula from a table cell, you must do the following: 1. Enter Table Edit mode (press Alt-F7). 2. While your cursor is in the cell with the formula, press 5, 2 and then delete the formula there by simply pressing your Delete key until it is gone, or first press the End key and then backspace over it until it's gone, then press Enter. Your text will remain as will any amount or sum that was created by the original formula. If you want to delete both the formula and all text within the cells that contain the formulas, do the following: 1. Enter the Table Edit mode (press Alt-F7). 2. Move the cursor to the cell in question. 3. Press your Backspace key and it will remove the formula as well as all text in the cell. Note: If you press Ctrl-End while your cursor is in the first cell of the row and you are in Table Edit mode, the entire row of both formulas and text will be deleted.
