auto step sum

[confused deejay]

hiya

i am writing a spred sheet where if i select a drop down list then enter a
sum the sum would be inserted into then appropriate cell. my problem is i
want that cell to then jump to the next cell the next time i enter a figure
i.e


sheet1

(from dropdown list in a1) "paid"
in a2 i would enter 100 which would add 100 in cell aa1.
the next time i choose from the dropdown list "paid" and enter 500 in cell
a2 i want that to jump to aa2 which i could then sum in ab1 the total on row
aa.

It sounds like you need to do something with VBA. Take a look at the
Worksheet_Change Event or go to the Programming group to ask for more
assistance.
