Hi. I'm trying to create a spreadsheet to help keep track of bills.

I'd like the spreadsheet to calculate how much money I'll have left after paying bills per month.

Example:

[TABLE="class: grid, width: 1000, align: left"]
<tbody>[TR]
[TD="align: center"][/TD]
[TD="align: center"]A[/TD]
[TD="align: center"]B[/TD]
[TD="align: center"]C[/TD]
[TD="align: center"]D[/TD]
[TD="align: center"]E[/TD]
[/TR]
[TR]
[TD="align: center"]1[/TD]
[TD]Checking account #1 balance[/TD]
[TD]$10000.00[/TD]
[TD][/TD]
[TD]Water bill[/TD]
[TD]$100.00[/TD]
[/TR]
[TR]
[TD="align: center"]2[/TD]

</tbody>[/TABLE]

I want to deduct the bills' amount (column E) from the first bank account until it reaches $0.00 (cell B3) then deduct any remaining bills from the next bank account (cell B8).

What formulas can I input into cells B4 and B9?

Links? Where??
If Excel says you have links but you can't find them, go to Formulas, Name Manager. Look for old links to dead workbooks & delete.
If column C is the amounts of the various bills.
In B4, =MAX(0,B3-SUM(C:C))

In B9 =B8-(SUM(C:C)-(B3-B4))
