what is the correct formula to add a column with =sum
I want to total columns without typing every cell into the formula.
I also need help with if sums. I tried =sum+(d2:d56) and it don't work and neither has any other combination I tried. I would also like to have the balance column in my checkbook automatically subtract the debits and add the credits. Column d is debits or payments and column e is credits or deposits and f is the balance column. It has been years since I used excel or lotus. |

Hi Thomas,
You might want to take a look at my page on inserting rows. The worksheet formulas in the example are for a checkbook. The first macro at the top provides for inserting rows, and makes use of OFFSET which is very necessary if you insert rows, delete rows, sort a range of rows. Inserting a row will maintain the formulas, used in the row above the insertions. There is also a Change Event macro that will populate the formulas on a row if you type something into column A or B and the formulas are not already present. Insert a Row using a Macro to maintain formulas http://www.mvps.org/dmcritchie/excel/insrtrow.htm --- HTH, David McRitchie, Microsoft MVP - Excel My Excel Pages: http://www.mvps.org/dmcritchie/excel/excel.htm Search Page: http://www.mvps.org/dmcritchie/excel/search.htm "Trevor Shuttleworth" wrote in message ... =SUM(D:D) Regards Trevor "Thomas Flaherty" <Thomas wrote in message ...

to clarify & simplify previous posts:
=SUM(D2:D56) or for entire column, regardless of length =SUM(D:D) as previously stated. Example for checkbook balance calculations: A B C D E 1 DATE DESC DEBITS CREDITS BALANCE 2 BAL FWD $500.00 3 5/1/2006 ATM $52.55 =E2-C3+D3 4 5/2/2006 DEPOSIT $250.00 =E3-C4+D4 5 5/3/2006 CHK 123 $100.00 =E4-C5+D5 "Thomas Flaherty" wrote: I want to total columns without typing every cell into the formula.
