    Using true/false to subtract ongoing (monthly payments)variable amount show result

    I want to decrement B5(a constant) using the results of the entry in D11 (a true/false statement from a drop down box). If result is true (1 in this case), it will subtract C11 ( a varible) from B5 and insert the result in B6. I would like to do this for C11:C34 as D11:D34 becomes true(1). Also as each 'true' updates, the new result is entered in B6. WHEW, my 1st post

    Re: IF/Then : As initial amount decreases

    Your title should explain what you are trying to do - it still doesn't. Please try again. I would make a suggestion if I understood your query ...
