Use macro to write formula
 

I have data in the following format,

A B C D

1 Dept Qty Price Sales (Qty*Price)
2
3

1. I have a formula in column D, how can I use macro to automatically enter
the formula whenever I insert a row, e.g between row 1 and 2. Plus it will
be useful to have the macro update the formula column whenever I add new rows
at the f bottom of the list i.e in row 4.

2. Since this list will be use to enter data I would prefer not to protect
the sheet.
How can I can get macro to rewrite the formula in column D to the bottom of
the list, each time the sheet recalculates, just in case it was accidentally
deleted.

Hi,

Suppose you have only the first row filled in below the titles, and assume
these are on rows 1 and 2. Select the range A1:D2 and in Excel 2003 choose
Data, List, Create List or in 2007 choose Home, Format as Table, OK.

Now when you add a new row of data the formula will automatically be added,
no macro needed.
