Word tables

When dividing two cells, there is a problem trying to format the result as a percentage.

RE: Word tables

Hi Susan,

Thank you for your question and welcome to the forum.

I have looked at the problem we encountered today and found out that you need to divide the two cells first and multiply the answer by 100. Then change the number format as a percentage (0%). So go to Table, then Formula and follow the instructions below:

e.g. =(a1/a2)*100, then change the number format to 0% and click OK.

I hope this answers your question.

Regards

Simon
