how do i carry a formula
i would like to set up an "if" formula so that it will only recognize another
cell if it contains a formula. example: column A has a list of numbers and then the sum of those numbers using =sum or other similar formula. i would like to setup a formula in column B that takes the number in the sumed cell and carries it to the right while leaving the remaining cells in column B blank. could someone please help. |

Not sure if there is more info that would no enable you to do this but if your total is in A10, in the cell in column B that you want to carry the sum to =A10 Does that help?

how do i carry a formula
Try just typing the same formula that is in your "=SUM cell" in column a in
whatever cell in column B you wish. If that don't give you what you're after, then please post back with specific cell information, your "=SUM" formula and which cell in column B you wish that result to appear.

how do i carry a formula
It is a very large list of names (in column A) and corresponding dollar
amounts (in column B) the names are grouped together and after each group ( they are rouped by first letter) is a sum in column B (list all A's then sum of all A's, list all B's then sum of all B's,...ect) in column C I want to pull out just the sums of each group. Does this help clarify my problem? Please help. "CLR" wrote: Try just typing the same formula that is in your "=SUM cell" in column a in whatever cell in column B you wish.

Paste this code into a standard module:
Function HasFormula(cell) HasFormula = cell.HasFormula End Function Then with your numbers in A1:A5 and your =sum(A1:A5) in A6 Enter into B1 and Copy Down to B6 =if(HasFormula(A1),A1,"") That you get you what you want..

how do i carry a formula
Do you have anything in column A just to the left of where you have a SUM in
column B?....if the cell is empty, then in column C of the same row,enter this formula and copy it down column C as far as you have data in column B.... Assume cell B20 is the first SUM...(if not, change the 20 as appropriate) =IF(A20="",B20,"") If you have some word, like "TOTAL" in column A opposite the SUM in column B, then use this formula, changing the word TOTAL to whatever exists..... =IF(A20="TOTAL",B20,"") ......this would go in C20 is B20 is a SUM..... hth Vaya con Dios, Chuck, CABGx3 "Xhawk57" wrote in message ...

how do i carry a formula
that is a great idea, thanks. I was being closed minded about identifying
the cell via the formula. I made one change to streamline it and keep it from picking up unwanted cells =if(isblank(A20),B20,"") thanks again.
