How do I set up a way to add up the number of lines used when cal.

[Guest]

I am doing a worksheet. On this chart I want to track the price of an object
sold. Along with that I want to add up the number of the objects that have
been sold, by just adding up the number sold in a column. Is there a way to
do this, beside creating another column and putting a qty in it.

It sounds like you want to use =countif()
(if each object is singular)

If you have quantities, maybe using =sumif()

Debra Dalgleish has some nice counting/summing instructions at:
