Hello,

First of all I don't know Excel very well, I know just the basics so
please keep that in mind when making any suggestions.

I download my credit card data in csv format every month, I would like to
have a spreadsheet that would keep track of the money I spend and show me
the %'s of what I spend on each category. For the most part I have the
same places I spend my money on every month, there are times that
something will come up as a one time thing but most everything I have each
month.

I would like to be able to download the csv file and have some kind of
formula or something that will take what I paste in the worksheet and
calculate the % of money spent on each place. I don't know anything about
using formulas or advanced things in Excel.


I hope I have explained this so that you understand what I want to
accomplish.

Thanks in advance
