Using the Equation Editor

To use the equation editor:

Select a mathematical or logical operator from the Functions list.
Select table cells on which to operate and save the equation.

When creating equations for tables, you can:

Type the argument for an operator between parentheses.
Select a custom property on which to operate from the Custom Properties list.
Click cell values (such as B3 or A1) to use in an equation. For example, B3*.08.
For columns of BOM tables only, select the column on which to operate from the Columns list.
Select a precision for numerical calculations from the Precision list.
Precision must precede the equation. For example, to set the precision to 2 decimal places for the product of cell A1 and .75, use {2}A1*.75.
