If i want to have a formula and a money data value eg £1500 in the same cell is this possible. example in cell b1 can i formula =sum(a1-b1)
i know this gives an error but can i get round it please. i am a novice.

THANK YOU Aladin but i want to know is it possible to only use the two cells?

THANK YOU MarkW but my question is can i put formula and data in the same cell? the above was just a simple illustration.

Excel Facts

Bring active cell back into view
Start at A1 and select to A9999 while writing a formula, you can't see A1 anymore. Press Ctrl+Backspace to bring active cell into view.

Put in A1: 100
Put in B1: 50
Enter in C1: =A1-B1

BTW, the SUM() in =SUM(A1-B1) is superfluous! A1-B1 returns a single value, and there's no need to sum a single value.
