addup up a dynamic range of numbers in a column
Guys/gals I need you help again like I did a couple years ago (which
by the way was a great help / bunch of people) so here goes.... I have an amortization schedule for a loan and in it I have a couple of cells which will specify the beginning payment and ending payment paid in a given year. Keep in mind these beginning and ending payment numbers will change from year to year and in theory could be say 6 payments or 15 payments (random number of payments) in a year. I need to calculate for these payments and in between them, the summation of their principal or interest paid which is in a column on the schedule. One idea I had tho it may or may not be worthy was to be able to do a Vlookup on the beginning and ending payment number (to get say the payment's corresponding principal or interest and sum that up as well as in between the beginning and ending payment numbers. Like I said earlier, this approach may not be good since I don't know how many payments I'm dealing with ... 1, 20, 30 ???? Also please no VBA solutions since I am just a beginner more or less with excel. Hope I was able to get my question across clearly. Thanks in advance !! |

addup up a dynamic range of numbers in a column
I don't understand the details, but you could put a formula like this in B1:
=sum(a:a) to sum all the numbers in column A. If there are other numbers in column A that should not be included, then this won't work. observer wrote: Guys/gals I need you help again like I did a couple years ago (which by the way was a great help / bunch of people) so here goes....
