Okay - Here is total cluelessness...

I can add cells with SUM

How do I subtract?

(i feel so ashamed)
 
to add:
enter this in the cells:
=sum(A1+B1)
=B1-A1 ** Infact you can write =SUM(B1-A1)

DOH!

I was missing the equal sign. Is there a way to bury this post so I don't look so foolish? (I realize I pushed this topic higher on the list with this post.)
 
I checked out your profile and thought I fell for some bad joke from being name TipMaster of the week or something ;)
Anyways hope I helped! [yinyang] Tranpkp [pc2]
