This is my first time posting, hopefully doing it correctly, will happily clarify anything as needed.

I would like some help creating a worksheet to track papers received and sent out for corrections. Where I enter the initial numbers of papers received in the top cell, and then enter the number sent out in the bottom cell. The top cell would then subtract what was sent out and as the corrections were returned it would auto update the top cell to reflect the current number. The daily total number is usually 4, but not always so I cannot use that as a base, but is there a way for my initial number entered to be read and saved as a base?



Looks like:
Sun Mon Tue
Received 4 1 3
Corrections out 0 3 1

Thank you for any help in this area!

Whats the difference between CONCAT and CONCATENATE?
The newer CONCAT function can reference a range of cells. =CONCATENATE(A1,A2,A3,A4,A5) becomes =CONCAT(A1:A5)
