I need to track sales and be able to post daily, month-to-date and
year-to-date totals. I thought the best way was to have a running list but
now I can not come up the formulas I need to puul out some of this data.

How about a pivot table. Using a pivot table you can group dates by day,
month, quarter, year... It is very fast and easy...

Hi
This sounds like a job for a pivot table - which is designed to summarise
data.
Go to Data|Pivot Table and Pivot Chart.
An introduction to them can be found he

Hope this helps.
