Hello

I have a list of products set with a wholesale rate. say $20.00.

I need to double that price then minus it by $5. making it $35.

what formula could I use for this.

Thank you all!!

Links? Where??
If Excel says you have links but you can't find them, go to Formulas, Name Manager. Look for old links to dead workbooks & delete.
OK i have one more question..

How do I remove a symbol from a list of prices. .. example

I have my prices $8.99 etc.. I need to be able to remove the $ symbol from the column so it just shows 8.99


??

depends on how you entered the data.
click on the cell that contains $8.99 and look in the "Edit Line" at the top of the worksheet.
Does it show $8.99 or 8.99

If it is 8.99 then the $ sign is applied by formatting the cell, if you can see t $8.99 the you can use the following formula in a spare cell (next to it) to remove it
Code:
=RIGHT(A1,(LEN(A1)-1))

assuming the $8.99 is in cell A1
