Hello Eich,
Most Macros run in the background all the time.
If you could upload a sample WorkBook of your requirements, we may be able to assist you.
Please consider:

The event handlers run all the time if you have established them.
You'd use a worksheet change event to cope with the original problem. If A1 is changed, check A2 and A3. If both are empty, exit. If one has a value, put the total in the other one. Repeat code for A2 and A3..
My initial thoughts anyway ... But now you've changed the title and the content, maybe that's not what you want.

Sorry for the change of title and content, I thought I figured out the solution, but as it turns out, I did not. Exactly because I do not know how to check for a change of a cell. Basically I want to do this, but less dumb and in realtime:

Thanks
Maybe the attached Workbook is what you want.
Also see the "Please consider" note at the bottom of this post.
I forgot to mention that although your Sub Sum Macro might need attention, as it would appear to me, I did not change it, since you may have a reason for having set it up that way.
Well, not exactly. For one, it doesn't work properly. It continues to sum up everything and produces an error on startup. I would prefer to alter my code in a way it works in realtime. Because it is easy to understand and stops when it has to. I'm sure the solution has something to do with this:
But I just don't know enough about the syntax to get it working in a timely fashion.

Do you experience the same problem with the WorkBook I have provided you with?
Sorry, I've been busy ... but can I just say that choosing "Sum" as the name of a VBA routine is a really bad choice. "Sum" is an Excel/VBA reserved word for an Excel function so you might experience some conflict.
Whatever, it's bad practice and I would suggest that you change it.
You could perhaps use the following worksheet change event:
