Default MPG Question

I guess my problem is that not all the trucks fueled on the 1st day of the
month so I have different start days and not all trucks will fuel on the last
day of the month. I think I need a formula or macro that looks at the unit
number then the first and last day said unit fueled then substracts the first
odometer reading from the last. I could be going about this the wrong way,
that's why I asking for help. Thanks for your reply if you can add anything
else I'd appreciate it.

If it's mainly a question of updating every formula to include the correct
date, can you not just enter the date in a given cell and point every formula
at that cell? Then you only have to change one thing, rather than many.

Morning,

I recieve a fuel report daily that list all the equipment that's fueled, the
gallons, odometer reading and unit numbers. I copy and paste this report into
an excel spreadsheet. I have a spreadsheet for each month. It's fairly easy
to do on a monthly basis. The problem I'm having is coming up with a way to
update the MPG daily. I can do this but I have to change each formula for
each truck to include the newest date. Does anyone know of a simple way to do
this. I'm thinking some kind of macro but am just not sure. I hope I
explained this enough that someone will understand what I'm talking about.
