writing a formula
Hi, I have a very basic question. I have a spreadsheet that has inventory
data for my company and need to create a formula to see what I have on hand at any given time. I need quantity in column D to add quantity in column I and subtract quantity in columns, g,h and j and the total to be in column k. I need this to automatically update if possible everytime I add newly ordered merchandise. I need this for lines 2 thru 392. Please help, I have treid and tried and can't get it to work. Thanks in advance for any help Chrissy |

writing a formula
In K2 type this: =D2+I2-G2-H2-J2
Then just drag the formula down to K392 -- If this posting was helpful, please click on the Yes button. Regards, Michael Arch. "chrissy" wrote: Hi, I have a very basic question.

Drag it by the fill-handle, which is the little square in the bottom
right-hand corner of the cell when you select it. -- David Biddulph "chrissy" wrote in message ... Thank you so very much, that formula works but only in that row, I can't seem to drag it down.

writing a formula
To drag it all you need to is click once on k2, make sure you do not double
click for that will leave you on editing mode and the draging won't work. Anyway, you will notice that the cell now has a dark rectangle around it (that indicates what cell you are on) if you carefully move your cursor to its bottom right corner, you will see it change from square cross into a line Cross, this is the time you click on your mouse and hold it draging it all the way to k392, if you pass k392 don't worry about it you can always delete those cells you went pass by. -- If this posting was helpful, please click on the Yes button.
