    Increasing a value in a cell by adding a new number to a connected cell?

    First I would like to say that I am not English nor very good to explain myself so hope the title is according to the forums rules.

    Now to my problem

    I would like to to put in for instance the number 100 in cell A and then the number should appear in cell B. I would like to remove the number in cell A without the number in cell B to dissapear. Then add for instance 50 in cell A to get the number in cell B to add up to 150 and so on. How can I do this?

    I would like to add that cell B is already connected to a different cell.

    And I am using Vista.

    Thnx alot in advance

    one way
    tools /options/ check iterations change value to 1
    then in say b1 put =a1+b1
    then any value in a1 will be added to b1

    its working only one cell
    if i have many incremental value all cell change why

    e.g.

    a1=100 then a1+b1=100
    if a1=50 then a1+b1=150

    if a2=100 then a2+b2=100 but
    b1 also change b1=250

    please solve it

    thanx

    Please do not resurrect old threads. Further, do not post your question in the thread someone else has started - this is known as thread hijacking and is against the Forum Rules.
    Always start your own thread and, if it helps to clarify your needs, provide a link back to other threads.

    I suggest you take the time to read the Forum Rules so that you can avoid infractions that will impact your posting privileges.
