Hello.

How can I sum any number automatically, from a column in a spreadsheet to a column in other workbook? Maybe a formula or a VB code?

Thanks.
 

Excel Facts

Convert text numbers to real numbers
Select a column containing text numbers. Press Alt+D E F to quickly convert text to numbers. Faster than "Convert to Number"
Please give more information ....

What sum do you want? From which column? Will the source workbook always be the same workbook?

Have you actually tried doing =SUM on the column in question? If so, what's the problem?

I want to sum the number from a column put in a template named "Order Form" to an other workbook named "Database Order". I need to see for every order I do how many time a picece was ordered.
I hope that now is more clear. Anyway, Take a look to the image please.

The "code number" is "Identity" number; and the "quantity" change every time I do an Order (for a customer).



The thing that I need is to sum automatically the quantity of every piece , in an other workbook ("Database Order"), every time I wright an order.
Thanks.
