Hi,

I am trying to create an excel spreadsheet to track my spending, so that I can implement a monthly budget. In my first column I have my income and then in the succeding columns B-S, I have my spending categories (groceries, utilities, etc..). How do I set my formulas such that the spending category total will subtract from my income column. Also, if a particular column doesn't have any entries, it will not do any computing.

Thanks,
