>Ok, I have to admit, that I either never done it or did it a long time ago and forgot the basics. I'm trying to create an Invoice document. Actually, I have a template, but it is currently static, e.g. I just type hours and the sum. This sounds stupid to me, so I want to do it right. E.g. I want to be able to type hours I've worked, have Total hours computed and the Total Due computed as well. How should I go about it:

I don't remember all the details now; some calculations can be done when you are in a table. Cell references are fixed, and don't adjust automatically, as in Excel.
Another way is to use bookmarks. A bookmark can span a selection, not only an insertion point; and there are formulae ("fields") which can make use of the contents of a bookmark - the actual text that would be selected if you go to the bookmark.
Difference in opinions hath cost many millions of lives: for instance, whether flesh be bread, or bread be flesh; whether whistling be a vice or a virtue; whether it be better to kiss a post, or throw it into the fire... (from Gulliver's Travels)
