Do you have a e-mail address I can send you the spreadsheet then trying to
explain without you seeing it? or e-mail me at

so, column A has inches of oil, column B has gallons based on inches
(=A2*126). Are you aying you receive addiitional gallons and want them to
calculate, or merely that you can't add the prior day's gallons to the
current day?

For the prior, merely add a column for gallons received and have your total
equal column B plus column C.

If the latter, row 3 = C2+B3, copy formula down. If else, not sure what your
spreadsheet is attempting.

I am in need of some help or guidance with a spread sheet I am making that
will subtract and add daily #2 Fuel oil usage for my plant. I can not seem to
come up with a formula that will add gallons and inches of fuel back in to
the row should I receive a oil delivery during the month.

Ex: On the first day of the month i have 70 inches of oil that is
multiplied by 126 totaling 8,820 gallons. On day 2 I have 66 inches of oil
for a total of 8,316 gallons and so on. Say on day 13 i am down to 50 inches
and i receive 3,780 gallons of oil it will not add back in my rows to
calculate what i just received. I do have a copy of the spreadsheet that I
would be happy to send to any one if they could contact me via e-mail with
any suggestions at
