Needed a help on an excel scenario



I have a column of say 3 rows containing numbers, Say A, B, C


I need to generate a formula / code to give me sum of all possible number combinations.i.e.

  • A + B
  • A + C
  • B + C
  • A + B + C

My real life scenario has more than 3 rows (actually about 15 rows)
 

Excel Facts

Test for Multiple Conditions in IF?
Use AND(test, test, test, test) or OR(test, test, test, ...) as the logical_test argument of IF.
Can you show a real example with numbers , showing the results yoiu expect and you want it

With the given data set:
[TABLE="width: 128"]
<colgroup><col width="64" span="2" style="width:48pt"> </colgroup><tbody>[TR]
[TD="class: xl63, width: 64"]Value 1[/TD]
[TD="class: xl63, width: 64, align: right"]5[/TD]
[/TR]
[TR]
[TD="class: xl63"]Value 2[/TD]
[TD="class: xl63, align: right"]10[/TD]
[/TR]
[TR]
[TD="class: xl63"]Value 3[/TD]
[TD="class: xl63, align: right"]15
[/TD]
[/TR]
</tbody>[/TABLE]



I am trying to achieve:

[TABLE="width: 256"]
<colgroup><col width="64" span="4" style="width:48pt"> </colgroup><tbody>[TR]
[TD="class: xl65, width: 64"]Result 1[/TD]
[TD="class: xl65, width: 64, align: right"]15[/TD]
[TD="class: xl65, width: 64"] [/TD]
[TD="class: xl65, width: 64"]=5+10[/TD]
[/TR]
[TR]
[TD="class: xl65"]Result 2[/TD]
[TD="class: xl65, align: right"]20[/TD]
[TD="class: xl65"] [/TD]
[TD="class: xl65"]=5+15[/TD]
[/TR]
[TR]
[TD="class: xl65"]Result 3[/TD]
[TD="class: xl65, align: right"]25[/TD]
[TD="class: xl65"] [/TD]
[TD="class: xl65"]=10+15[/TD]
[/TR]
[TR]
[TD="class: xl65"]Result 4[/TD]
[TD="class: xl65, align: right"]30[/TD]
[TD="class: xl65"] [/TD]
[TD="class: xl65"]=5+10+15[/TD]
[/TR]
</tbody>[/TABLE]

Because you already know what are the possible combinaisons and formulas why you don't put the formulas in a cell
e.g.
I have a column of say 3 rows containing numbers, Say A, B, C => Col A
B1 = A1 + A2
B2 = A1 + A3
B3 = A2 + A3
B4 = A1 + A2 + A3

Yes that is easy for a 3 row combination. But for a 15 row data to do it manually is very tiresome.
Need an automated solution. Some days the no of rows also fluctuate between 12 to 20
