Complex calculation and manipulation in Excel
 
I have my budget calculator on an Excel spreadsheet. In one table(TableA) I
enter my paycheck date and the 4 columns to the right of it get a currency
value from another part of the worksheet. Right below that I have expense
descriptions I enter and their amounts which subtract from those column
totals. At the bottom of that table I have a remaining balance row. What I
want to do is make a button that I can click which takes the paycheck date
and puts it in another table(TableB), then adds all the remaining balances,
stores their total value beside that paycheck date in TableB, skips to the
next line in TableB, and clears TableA. Is this even possible with Excel or
am I biting off more than it can chew?

it will be quite easy with vba.If you have all your tables set up a good way
to start to use and learn vba is to record a macro.Go to tools/ macro/
record macro.Then do all your above steps manually and when finished "stop
recording".When you go to tools/macro/macros again choose edit and look at he
resulting code,then post back here !
