I can use the sum button when they are highlighted but it only lets me add them up and has lots of other complex formulas, I cant find the simple mathmatical ones like multiply!!!
Help, you think the basic formulas would be on the sum button.
Can anyone help me???
thanks
mat
A1=QUANTITY
B1=PRICE
C1=TOTAL
This is the calculation to put in the totals cell C2
=SUM(A2*B2)
If you hover the mouse over the bottom left hand corner of the cell C2 untill it is a bold cross
+ then drag the column down it will replicate the formula in relation to the cells to the left.
