You may apply simple numerical operations such as Sum, Average, Count, set cells equal to other cells or even add an equation of your own. The following examples are for Sum and Average operations.
1. Click in the Cell in which you want to enter the Sum formula.
2. Right click and select: Insert / Formula / Sum
3. The following instruction appears on the Command Line:
EDITTABLECELL Select first corner of table cell range: left-click the first corner of a window selection inside the cells you want to use for the sum (P1)
4. The following instruction appears on the Command Line:
EDITTABLECELL Select second corner of table cell range: drag the cursor to the opposite corner inside the cells you want to use for the sum, then left-click (P2)
5. The formula appears in the cell. Verify the formula and select Close Text Editor. You may edit the formula if necessary.
Notice the formula disappears and the sum of the cells selected has been calculated. Also the value is shaded to make you aware that this cell has a formula in it.

Modify a Table Using the Ribbon Tab
So far in this lesson you have been using the right-click menus to add formulas to, or modify data in a cell, but AutoCAD also has the Table Cell Contextual Ribbon tab. The Table Cell tab has nearly all of the features that are available in the right-click menus.
To modify a Table or Cell using the Table Cell Ribbon tab:
1. Single left-click on any cell to enable the Table Cell Contextual Ribbon tab.
2. The Table Cell Contextual Ribbon tab will appear with various editing panels.
It is worth experimenting with all the tools on the ribbon tab. It is also your choice on whether you use the right-click menus or the contextual ribbon tab when adding or modifying data in a table, some people prefer to use right-click menus for speed and efficiency, others prefer the contextual ribbon tab. The choice is yours.
You may also modify tables using Grips. When editing with Grips, the left edge of the table remains stationary but the right edge can move. The upper left Grip is the Base Point for the table.
To use Grips, click on a table border line. The Grips should appear. Each Grip has a specific duty, shown below. To use a Grip, click on the Grip and it will change to red. Now click and drag it to the desired location.
