Tables in Excel

Is there a formula that i can use in an excel spreadsheet that will add a sum to a total creating a new total, which when you add a new sum, will add to the new total creating the next new total? As an example, if you are working out expenses on a monthly basis, but want to total the monthly expense to an added running total- i would like to know how i can create this running total.
Hope that makes sense! Thanks

RE: tables in Excel

Hi Lucy, not sure whether I'm getting the wrong end of the stick here, but you just want to create a sum formula that keeps updating itself when more is added to the range?

if you have a column of figures in column A and a total of that column in, say, A100 then the same for column B, then column C etc,
try doing a fomula similar to this:

=sum(A100:IV100) this will sum up all of your totals in row 100.


Where is your grand total figure going to be located?

Excel tip:

Line breaks in a cell

You can control the line breaks for multiple-line headings or labels in your Microsoft Excel worksheet, just like you do in Microsoft Word. Here's how to do it.

Click the cell where you want the label or heading to appear.
Type the first line of information.
Press ALT+ENTER.
