I don't know much about Excel, but I'd like to program the cells for
accounting. How do I do this?

I suggest you purchase Excel for Dummies to get started.
best wishes

You cannot format cells to do math calculations.

You must enter formulas which reference other cells.

A1 contains 123
A2 contains 456

In A3 enter =A1 A2 to get the sum of A1 and A2.

There are many good Accounting Templates available at the MS Template Gallery.

Browse through the Business and Personal sites.

Someone will be along soon i am sure but I think you will need to be more
specific quot;but I'd like to program the cells for
accounting.quot; this is too general a statement.
You might want to try in the meantime a google search for some basic stuff.quot;Bob Mulliganquot; lt;Bob gt; wrote in message
