Computed values in AutoCAD table cells.

In tables (TABLE objects), AutoCAD 2006 supports mathematical expressions similar to MS Excel - you can use expressions (formulas) like e.g.:

=sum(A1:A27,C1)
=(a6+d6)/e1*8
=log(100)+sin(a5)
=average(B4:C4)

Contents of such computed tables is transferred to older AutoCAD versions in a form of results (as in fields).
