hi i think this is a very basic question but, here goes any way

I have got a basic spreadsheet that i would like to use to do some
accounts it looks like:

Opening

Income
Receipts
TV
Transfer In
Sponsorship
Misc in
Total in

Expenditure
Wages
Maintenance
Transfer Out
Misc_Out
Total out

Closing

Now i'd like to get the closing number so for this on paper i'd just do


opening + Total in - Total out = Closing (total in and total out also
have formulas to get the total. For which i am having the same problem
i am trying to describe) I am sure this is the same for excel but for
some reason it does not automatically update when i change the numbers
in the caculation

so if for example the cal was

11000 + 10000 - 3000 = 18000 but then one of the numbers changed so it
should be

11000 + 9500 - 3000 = 17500 all my numbers on my spreadsheet would
still be showing the first numbers apart from the number i just
manually changed.

How do i get excel to automatically change the numbers as i change the
spreadsheet?
