    Formula to calculate cumulative balance

    I'm new to using formulas in excel and what i'm trying to do is i'm sure rather simple but need some help to set up.

    I have three columns. In one column is credit, second column is debit, and third column is balnce. how do i set up a formula so the balance column automatically updates when i type a number into either the credit or debit?

    Re: Need help with setting up a formula

    Assuming you have a starting balance, say in D1, then in C2:

    =D1+A2-B2

    in C3:

    =C2+A3-B3

    copied down.

    where the first credit/debit is in A2 or B2
    Where there is a will there are many ways.
