Where do I start - Formula
I am trying to simplfy my job as a production planner.
I have a spreadsheet with various amounts to be added, But my main problem is this. In cell A, I input a figure (My daily production requirements) 10000 In cell B, I input a figure (Materials on site to be used) 5000 In cell C, I input a figure (Materials being delivered by a supplier) 5000 So in cell D I can now show a balance required ( A - B -C = 0 ) But What I want to know is this If C Is more or less than the required balance, I want the variance figure to be shown in another Cell (E) Eg; A = 10000 B = 5000 C = 7000 D = 2000 OR A = 10000 B = 5000 C = 3000 D = -2000 I hope this makes sense and thanks for any help |

In D type the following formula: =(A-B)-C .
Always start a formula with an equal sign. The result (positive or negative) will show up in D. HTH "Julian Campbell" wrote in message ... I am trying to simplfy my job as a production planner.
