how do i have my formula wrap to the next row in excel
Hello to anyone that can help me.
I'm trying to use excel to create a payment chart for my bills, so i would like to know how to have this formula wrap to the next row with the ending total. A+B-C-D-E=F and have the F wrap as the total wrap back to A and continue on through the cells Please help. Thank you for your time. Bobby |

That is not a formula to start with and you cannot wrap to the next row in any
case. Say you have numbers in A1,B1,C1,D1,E1 In F1 enter =A1+B1-C1-D1-E1 If you posted a small sample of your data and layout, we could be more specific.

Bobby,
If I understand the question: Column A Column B Column C Column D Column E Column F Number Number Number Number Number End Total Ex. $100 $200 $56 $24.50 $1.50 $218.00 $218 $200 $56 $24.50 $1.50 $336 In cell "F" would be the formula,"=SUM(SUM(A1,B1)-SUM(C1,D1))" In cell "A" in the next row down would be the formula, "=F1" This way the next entry would start off with the previous total. hth "Bobby" wrote: Hello to anyone that can help me.

how do i have my formula wrap to the next row in excel
I'm very sorry for not being too clear about my question.
But i give it another try =sum A1+B1-C1-D1-E1=F1 now what i would like to do is to make the Value in F1 be a running total through to the rest of the cell while maintaining the same formula for the rest of the cells meaning B2 through to E2 and so on. My reason for this is to create an expense sheet for money that spend on a daily basis. "Gord Dibben" wrote: That is not a formula to start with and you cannot wrap to the next row in any case.

In F1 enter this formula.
=IF(COUNT(A1:E1)=0,"",SUM(A1:E1)) In F2 enter this formula. =IF(COUNT(A2:E2)=0,"",F1+SUM(A2:E2)) Copy the F2 formula down the column. Cells will look blank until you start pounding numbers into A:E Gord On Wed, 5 Mar 2008 18:08:00 -0800, Bobby wrote: I'm very sorry for not being too clear about my question.

Bobby,
OK. Once the formulas are set in the first row ( as in previous email), what you need to do is copy the formula down as far as you need, so the formulas do not change. So this is what you need to do: In F1 cell, Add a place keeper to formula. "=SUM((SUM(A1,B1)-SUM(C1,D1))" becomes "=SUM((SUM($A1,$B1)-SUM($C1,$D1))" In cell "A" in the next row down would be the formula would change: "=F1" OLD '=$F1" new This keeps the column from changing but allows the rows to change as you need. Copy the row, in my example, A1 to F1. Down two or three rows. Put some numbers in and check the results. It should be fine, if so copy down to your hearts content. hth If you need anything else, let me know. "Bobby" wrote: Hello to you.

Hey FloMM2
Okay it seems that my head is full of water..... but what are you saying to is to use this formula in Cell F1 =SUM((SUM(A1,B1)-SUM(C1,D1,E1)) and then in cell A2 put =F1. I did all that you instructed but when i put the numbers in the remaining in cell B2 .....through to E2 the calculation does not continue on to F2 on so i'm probably doing something wrong. I even tried to copy the formula from F1 down through the F colum and copy F1 down through the A colum and still it doesn't work. i'm also should tell you that i'm trying to do this in Office 07 i don't know if that makes any difference. would it be possible to try =SUM((SUM(A1:A50,B1:B50)-SUM(C1:C50,D1:D50,E1:E50)) DO YOU THINK THAT WOULD WORK "FloMM2" wrote: Bobby, OK.

Bobby,
If you use the "A1:A50" it will add or subtract the whole column. In the first row in cell F1, put: "=SUM((SUM($A1,$B1)-SUM($C1,$D1,$E1))" In the second row in A2, put: "=$F1" Copy first row F1 into F2. Now copy row 2 (A2 thru F2) down a couple of rows. Add some numbers to check, to see if it gives you what you want. If all is good, select row A thru F, copy. The select the area to paste to, say A5 thru A50. Select ,"Edit","Paste Special", then select "Formulas", "OK" That should do it. hth :-) "Bobby" wrote: Hey FloMM2 Okay it seems that my head is full of water..... but what are you saying to is to use this formula in Cell F1 =SUM((SUM(A1,B1)-SUM(C1,D1,E1)) and then in cell A2 put =F1.
