Hi,

I'm making a basic spreadsheet with simple formulas and I'm drawing a blank. I have a formula with simple math =A4+B3. I would like to include this formula for the whole column, yet when I do that it repeats the answer for the last row with an entry. (See the "40" below). How can I get the formula to be there, but not the "40"? I hope this makes sense.

A BOB 16 16 7
A 2nd 12 28 3
A 2nd 12 40 3
40
40
40
40
40

How to create a cell-sized chart?
Tiny charts, called Sparklines, were added to Excel 2010. Look for Sparklines on the Insert tab.
Cannot discern in your example data what is A4 and what is B3.

Try something like this.
=IF(OR(A4="",B3=""),"",A4+B3)
