I'd rather use a program that will add and subtract trans for me. Sometimes
I goof with my math and it takes me so much time to go over it to find my
error. Thanks anyway!

I am trying to configure Excel to balance my checkbook. Column A is Trans.
Type, Column B is Date, Column C is Description of Trans., Column D is
Debits, Column E lists if items are posted, Column F is Debits and Column G

(balance) and get a new balance (new column? H?) and get Column F (credits)
to add to Column G (balance to get a new balance (again, new column? H?).
I am not computer illiterate and I should be able to figure this out by
myself. But I've been working on finding the right functions (linest,
subtotal, etc.) and the way to phrase the functions to get what I want.
Please help me, I am so frustrated I want to through the computer out the
window!
Thanks so much!

Unless you just want the practice why not just download a template
from MS

Watch for line wrap.

That's exactly what it does. Did you even look at it?
