I made a small copy of my spreadsheet. I will try to explain what I want to do to the best of my ability.

I want to get an accurate balance that's left on the contract. When I encumber funds I want to subtract G2 from F2 with the amount showing in I2. When I want to unencumber funds I want to add C2 and H2 with that total showing in I2 as well. However I don't want both totals showing at the same time. I want them to show when I enter a number in either G2 or H2. There won't be anything in both cells at the same time, G2 will always be a positive number, and H2 will always be a negative number. Can anyone help me?

Welcome to the board.

Perhaps something like this:

=IF(G2<>"",F2-G2,IF(H2<>"",C2+H2,""))
