multiple inputs into same cell and totaling
I have A as constant. I subtract B from A giving me C. I want to be able to input different values(numbers) into B that accumulate. So 1st input 10 giving C new value. 2nd Input of 5 in B and having B become 15 which than updates C.
So A's value 100 Subtract B's value from A. Example 100-10 Giving C's value 100-10+90 Than input new value into B: 5 which adds to B original 10 making it 15 C's value should than become 85. I want to be able to input new value in B as many times as I want. |

multiple inputs into same cell and totaling
This example uses A1, B1, and C1.
Put the following event macro in the worksheet code area: Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range) Dim A As Range, B As Range, C As Range Set A = Range("A1") Set B = Range("B1") Set C = Range("C1") If Intersect(Target, B) Is Nothing Then Exit Sub Application.EnableEvents = False If [C] = "" Then [C] = [A] - [b] Else [b] = [A] - [C] + [b] [C] = [A] - [b] End If Application.EnableEvents = True End Sub Because it is worksheet code, it is very easy to install and automatic to use: 1. right-click the tab name near the bottom of the Excel window 2. select View Code - this brings up a VBE window 3. paste the stuff in and close the VBE window If you have any concerns, first try it on a trial worksheet. If you save the workbook, the macro will be saved with it. To remove the macro: 1. bring up the VBE windows as above 2. clear the code out 3. close the VBE window To learn more about macros in general, see: http://www.mvps.org/dmcritchie/excel/getstarted.htm To learn more about Event Macros (worksheet code), see: http://www.mvps.org/dmcritchie/excel/event.htm |
