increasing and decreasing a value in a cell
Hi there, first time user here. I am looking for some help with a personal worksheet I am creating to control stock of medication by usage. What I need help on is that I have an initial value in a cell (stock level) and I need to add to it the value of another cell (supply) in such a way that stock level now reflects the new value and increases as a new value is entered in the supply field and decreases based on a value (daily usage) in another cell. The spreadsheet has to hold the new stock level as the current value each time the document is opened and amended. ie: B3 (stock level) initial value is 20. B4 (supply) is 4 -value added to B3- B3 (stock level) value now 24 B5 (daily usage) -3 -value deducted from B3- B3 (stock level) now 21 B4 (supply) changed to 6 -value added to B3- B3 (stock level) now 29 I don't know enough about advanced formulas or scripting to get the worksheet to do what I need it to do. It has to be able to run in excel as I need to carry the worksheet around in a PDA. If anyone can decipher what I am looking for and can advise a solution it would be VERY appreciated. -- cwal ------------------------------------------------------------------------ cwal's Profile: http://www.excelforum.com/member.php...o&userid=33493 View this thread: http://www.excelforum.com/showthread...hreadid=532926 |
