Setting up a basic account system

If you have an excel spreadsheet can you get it to add item from column a at random and then deuct items from column b at random to leave a balance like a bank statement?

RE: Setting up a basic account system

Dear Catrina

Thank you for attending Excel Intermediate course! I hope you enjoyed the course and benefited from it.

I am not sure what you mean by Random! If you want something like a bank Statement then please refer to the uploaded Excel file with this post and you will see that I have done a very simple calculation in eth Current Balance column.

All we need to do is to add the new dates, descriptions, withdrawals, and deposits. Copy and paste the formula in Current balance to get the results.

I am hoping that is what you were after!

I hope this has answered your query.

If this has answered your query then I would request you to please mark the question as resolved!! If not and you have a specific question related to this then please post it as a new question and we should be able to provide you the solution for it!!

Kindest Regards

Excel tip:

Convert Text into Number

Some times numbers maybe imported in as text or you maybe concatenating numbers that form a text string that now are treated, because you had to extract them by Text functions

To convert Text into Number just encase the relevant cell reference or formula in the TEXT function. See Converting American Date to European hint

eg TEXT(Ref) or TEXT(formula)
