Ok, let me try this again.
I have 4 lipsticks which are represented in sheet 'Inventory Ordered' cell
E3. I want those lipstick to be represented by 10-6161. Everytime I type in
10-6161 in sheet 'Inventory Sold' column B I want it to subtract from
'Inventory Ordered' cell E3 and the results to show in 'Inventory In Stock'
cell D3.

Layout;
'Inventory Ordered' Cell E3 minus by part number 'Inventory Sold' column B
to = in 'Inventory In Stock' D3

If I can't work it out, would someone also be kind enough to walk me through
it once.

Hi
have you tried my suggestion and if yes what exactly does not work for you

P.S.: always better to stay in the original thread for follow-ups :-)

I didn't know to stay in the same thread. I tried it but I am having issues
figuring it out. I have been figuring out these formulas as I go. So I don't
know what all the parts of that formula are for. Thank you for letting me
know about the thread.

Do you have a column next to "10-6161" that has a 4 in it?

No. All the sheets, the part number is at least 3 columns over. But hey, if I
need to I can move it.

The confusion on my part was that you said you wanted 10-6161 to "be
represented by 4".

It sounds like you want to count all the 10-6161 in column B and subtract
that number from the "inventory ordered" amount.

You can use a formula like

=COUNTIF(B:B,"10-6161") to count up the 10-6161s in B. You can also
reference the cell that contains the part number like =COUNTIF(B:B,$A1).

If those do what you want, just include the COUNTIF... part in the formula
that you want to show your inventory (subtracting it from the number you
have ordered. if it's in the same row it should be easy).

This is the formula I have.

=SUM(InventoryOrdered!E3,InventorySold!B:B)*COUNT( InventorySold!B:B,10-87400)

The count works by itself. But I can not get the count part to subtract from
the sum part. or heck, even add it at this point. At least then I would be
closer.

I don't think that's working..

First, the COUNT function returns counts of numbers, e.g. if you had
66,342,3542 in A1:A3, COUNT(A1:A3) would return 3. The ",10-87400" part
isn't doing anything useful -- the formula is subtracting 87400 from 10 and
saying "yes, -87390 is a number" and returning a 1. If you tested the
formula by entering 10-87400 in InventorySold!B? only once, you would think
it's working. If you had entered it more than once you would see that it is
not.

Based on what it looks like you're trying to do, you can try this formula;

=InventoryOrdered!E3-COUNTIF(InventorySold!B:B,"10-87400")

You were so right. I was testing it out last night and it wasn't coming out

I think this is the best place to come for help in writing formulas. Also,
reading this group, and helping others write formulas is great practice and
exercise- and some would even think it's fun..

I think there is "Excel for Dummies" but unless you can get a computer
version which is easily searchable, you'll have more luck searching through
newsgroups or on the web.

Here are some sites which are commonly provided to people looking for Excel
help around he

http://www.contextures.com/tiptech.html

http://www.cpearson.com/excel.htm

http://www.xldynamic.com/source/xld.SUMPRODUCT.html
(this one is about sumproduct, which has very many applications).


Glad to help.

The confusion on my part was that you said you wanted 10-6161 to
"be
represented by 4".

It sounds like you want to count all the 10-6161 in column B and
subtract
that number from the "inventory ordered" amount.

You can use a formula like

=COUNTIF(B:B,"10-6161") to count up the 10-6161s in B. You can
also
reference the cell that contains the part number like
=COUNTIF(B:B,$A1).

If those do what you want, just include the COUNTIF... part in
the
formula
that you want to show your inventory (subtracting it from the
number
you
have ordered. if it's in the same row it should be easy).

No. All the sheets, the part number is at least 3 columns
over.
But hey,
if I
need to I can move it.

Do you have a column next to "10-6161" that has a 4 in it?

Ok, let me try this again.
I have 4 lipsticks which are represented in sheet
'Inventory
Ordered'
cell
E3. I want those lipstick to be represented by 10-6161.
Everytime I
type
in
10-6161 in sheet 'Inventory Sold' column B I want it to
subtract from
'Inventory Ordered' cell E3 and the results to show in
'Inventory In
Stock'
cell D3.

Layout;
'Inventory Ordered' Cell E3 minus by part number
'Inventory
Sold'
column B
to = in 'Inventory In Stock' D3

If I can't work it out, would someone also be kind enough
to
walk me
through
it once.
