You might look at Steve Bell's suggestion - that might be really what you
want. Just be aware that any movement through the cell will trigger the
selectionchange event.

Assuming Breakdown and paid are identical and the paid would be on the
same
row on both sheets

A checkbox would be better I think because you would then know you had
pushed it.

Write a macro like

Sub Checkbox_click()
sName = Application.Caller
set cbox = worksheets("Expense Breakdown").Checkboxes(sName)
if cbox.Value = xlOn then
rw = cbox.TopLeftCell.Row
Worksheets("Expense Paid").Cells(rw,"F").Value = _
Worksheets("Expense Breakdown").Cells(rw,"G").Value
End if
End Sub

make the forms toolbar visible and drag the checkboxes to the
appropriate
location on Expense Breakdown. Assign each to the above macro (which
should
be in a general module, not the sheet module).

How it works is this. My first worksheet is for the analysis which
just
shows
totals. My second worksheet is the breakdown which breaks down all
total
categories with purchases made. What i would like is to insert a
button of
some sort next to each purchase so that when it has been paid i can
check
it
or push it and it will update the third spreadsheet (Expense paid)
with
the
transaction which was paid and the same information entered for that
purchase
from the Expense Breakdown worksheet.

formulas don't work?

If you want a macro, your question lacks any detail that would
support
suggesting one.

Private Sub CommandButton1_click()
worksheets("Analysis").Range("B9").Value = _
application.Sum(worksheets("Expense Breakdown"). _
Range("F10:F50")
End Sub

would be a sample of code associated with a commandbutton added from
the
control toolbox toolbar, that when clicked sums F10:F50 on a
worksheet
"Expense Breakdown" and puts the results in B9 of the sheet
analysis.

I have a series of financial spreadsheets for my company. Each job
has
its
own workbook with several spreadsheets in it; ex. Analysis,
Expense
Breakdown, Expense paid. I have designed the spreadsheets so I can
simply
type in the information needed for the Expense Breakdown and it
updates
the
Analysis with totals. What I am looking for is a button, or check
box
placed
next too the Breakdown which when pushed or checked will
automatically
update
the Expense Paid spreadsheet in the appropriate fields. It can be
a
series
of buttons or checkboxes, as long as it updates the expense paid
sheet.
