Hello,

Thanks for your help with this. I put it in, and got a #VALUE in that cell.
Also, I tried adding dollar amounts and it didn't calculate. Sorry for the
bother ...

Try this:

Hi,

What is wrong with my formula? Here is the formula I wrote. I placed it in
the function field:

=SUM(IF(J2:O2=""),"",I2-(J2:O2))

Here is what I am trying to do with the formula --

IF J2 thru O2 are all blank,

THEN this cell stays blank

ELSE

This cell shows the result of I2 minus (sum of J2 thru O2)

END IF

Cell I2 is amount due,
J2 thru O2 are payments made,
P2 is balance due.
Requestor wants P2 left blank if no payments have been made. If payments
have been made, they should be totalled then subtracted from I2, and the
results displayed in P2.

Thanks!


Thanks!
