Hi Tim, While it is not a real solution to my problem, this might be something for me to look into! I didn't know about this feature and it sounds great! I do have some concers about cross-references between subdocuments and table calculations with values from tables in a different subdocument. But, I'll get myself educated and see if it is a feasable option...! ☺ Thanks!
