Same number

Copper Contributor

I get the same number all the way down the column, I am looking for a way to have IE: F2 be 3993 and F3 on to be blank until next entry.

Can you upload an example of what you are trying to achieve? I dont really understand.

I am trying to get rid of the numbers in cells/rows I have not entered data on, IE: F2 & F3 should have the 5000 in but not F4 on until I enter a number in E4.  When I go and try to remove the 5000 on F4 on down it deletes the formula, and I have to re-enter it each time I enter new data.

Add an IF condition in column F!

 

cell F4:

=IF(E4="";"";formula you already use for 5000)

Don't understand the IF command.  Figure 1 is what is now, figure2 the formulas, figure 3 what I am trying to gain.

I don't want the next line in F to be filled till inputted in E.  Also I want F to keep the previous total.  Does that make sense?  I am learning on the fly here.  

Thanks

I've attached an example of what I think you are trying to do.. have a look and let me know.

Yes that looks like it is.

 

instead of =SUM(C9-E9) I was saying to use

 

=IF(E9="";"";SUM(C9-E9))

 

also, remember that it is C9-E9 then C10-E10 and so on
