    Make AutoSum Cell move down as rows are populated?

    I have a column of numbers and i have it set to autosum at a later row in that column, and as the rows fill up i want the autosum cell to move down one row. How can i do this without adding new rows?

    Just cover the unused range in your sum function, since you will not be adding the any new rows

    Or

    We can use some other function to read the data and do the summing based on the last entry but a sample file will be helpful for giving exact solution

    hi poof. couple of ways. assuming data in A1:A10. in Excel 2003, you can select the data you have & press CTRL + L. the sum range will change as rows are added directly below.

    you can also create dynamic ranges. this is assuming there are no other data below A11, A1 is the header.
    =SUM(A2:INDEX(A:A,COUNTA(A:A)))

    or:
    =SUM(OFFSET($A$2,,,COUNTA(A:A)-1))

    if you cant do it, Attach a sample workbook. Make sure there is just enough data to make it clear what is needed. Include BEFORE/AFTER sheets if needed to show the process you're trying to complete or automate. Remember to desensitize the data.

    Click on GO ADVANCED and use the paperclip icon to open the upload window.

    Or make the sum above the column, than there is no problem if you add an row to your data.

    2e advantance if you use freese panes you also have the sum always on your screen

    3e advantance if you want to print the data you can have the sum on multiple pages.
    Notice my main language is not English.

    I appreciate it, if you reply on my solution.

    I found i could freeze the top column and put in ="Price = $"&SUM(A2:A10)

    and it works just fine, thanks.
