Creating Formulas That Count and Sum 14
FIGURE 14.11
Simple formulas in column C display a cumulative sum of the values in column B.
You can use an IF function to hide the cumulative sums for rows in which data hasn’t been entered. The
following formula, entered in cell C2 and copied down the column, is
=IF(B2””,SUM(B$2:B2),””)
Figure 14.12 shows this formula at work.
