Sorry to have to ask such a basic question, but how do I apply a formula
to an entire colum? I want c3=c2+a3-b3, c4=c3+a4-b4, c5=c4+a5-b5, . .

If you double-click on the little black square in the lower right hand corner
of your bottommost cell with the formula in it, it will copy itself down
column C as far as you have data in column B........

From what I read, any formula used 3 out of the last 5 times is suppose
to continue. I checked the options and the correct options are checked
in the edit pane.

Just copy & paste. Excel will increment the formula for each line.
