Default Subtract entire sheet?

I have two sheets in the same format. Is there a quick way to subtract the
entire sheet one from the other or do I have to resort to just doing a
subtract formula and copying to relevant cells?

Thanks!

You want to subtract the total of one sheet from another?

=SUM(Sheet2!1:65536)-SUM(Sheet1!1:65536)

entered in a third sheet or else you would get circular reference errors

I doubt that is what you want though, maybe you could clarify?

Regards,

Yes.

In Sheet3!A1, enter Sheet1!A1-Sheet2!A1

Copy to suit.

Copy the pertinent range on the sheet you want to subtract. Move to
theother sheet and select the top left corner of the same range. From the
menu select EditPaste SpecialSubtract
