AI Thread Summary
To calculate averages in Microsoft Word 2007, users should note that the equation tools in Word are primarily for displaying mathematical expressions and do not perform calculations. For actual calculations, Microsoft Excel is recommended. Users can copy data from Word to Excel to compute averages and then embed the Excel spreadsheet into the Word document for integration. Alternatively, writing a VBA script in Word could also facilitate calculations.

I don't know about 2007 but its just there to present maths in word documents and doesn't really calculate. Microsoft Excel can calculate stuff.

Thank you for your reply
 
The equation tools are for display [and re-editing] only. As mentioned, Excel can calculate. I guess you could embed an Excel spreadsheet in your Word document. You might also try writing a VBA script in Word.
 
Thank you robphy,
do you know how to do it? I'll appreciate if you can help me
 
How about inserting the spreadsheet as an object into word...
