"Earl" wrote in message ... Thx. This is exactly what I wanted.

JulieD: The formula is exactly what I was looking for. One follow up thought: Is there a way to amend the formula to 'flag' if the values entered exceed the maximum? Thx.

Ken, Thx for the reply. When I apply the formula it returns *0* whether column D has reached it's max. or not. The closest I have gotten is; =IF(B1+C1=A1,"Maximum Reached",SUM(B1+C1)) . This is not what I want but maybe the only solution. "Ken Hudson" wrote: Hi Earl, Try this in column D: =IF(B1+C1=A1,"*" & B1+C1 & "*",B1+C1) "Earl" wrote: I have four columns of data. The first is the maximum no. allowed, the second is the last period total, the third is the current period total and the fourth is the sum of two and three. The typical sum function works fine until the fourth column equals the first, this is where I want to place an asterisk before and after the sum. This would indicate that the vlue has reached it's max. Is this possible? Thanks. |
