Math - Total Calculated Incorrectly Due to Ex

The information in this document applies to:
WordPerfect® 5.1 for DOS

Problem

Solutions: When the user calculated math columns, the total of the subtotals was incorrect. An extra tab set code was affecting the totals. After deleting the tab set code, the math calculated correctly.

Another user discovered they had placed extra tabs in the document that could not display on the screen due to having narrow margins. The subtotals calculated correctly after the user changed the margins and eliminating the unneeded tab settings.

If your calculation in Math takes more characters than there is space for, it will not calculate correctly and/or not at all. For example, if the result of the calculation is 1,000,000.00 and there is only enough room between the tabbed columns for five characters, WordPerfect will calculate incorrectly.
