Need Help with Macro

[Guest]

COL A: Items
A1: "Item 1"
A2: "Item 2"
A3: "Item 3"

COL B: Current Balance
B1: "100"
B2: "150"
B3: "205"

COL C: USED
C1:
C2:
C3:

I need a Macro wriiten to subtract Column C from Column B; update Column B
of the current balance and delete the number used at column C as soon as the
current balance is updated.

I hope I'm clear with my request. Thanks in advance.

Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
Const WS_RANGE As String = "C:C" '<== change to suit

On Error GoTo ws_exit
Application.EnableEvents = False

If Not Intersect(Target, Me.Range(WS_RANGE)) Is Nothing Then
With Target
If IsNumeric(.Value) Then
If IsNumeric(.Offset(0, -1).Value) Then
.Offset(0, -1).Value = .Offset(0, -1).Value - .Value
.Value = ""
End If
End If
End With
End If

ws_exit:
Application.EnableEvents = True
End Sub

'This is worksheet event code, which means that it needs to be
'placed in the appropriate worksheet code module, not a standard
'code module. To do this, right-click on the sheet tab, select
'the View Code option from the menu, and paste the code in.

Thanks for your response Bob. Unfortunately, I'm not really proficient at
this so I can't apply it to my spreadsheet. I thought I did what you told me
to do but to no avail. Is there a formula I can use instead of Macro.
Say:
A1 is the current balance. If I input a number on A2 (Used), A1 is
automatically updated with the current balance (meaning A2 is automatically
subracted from A1).

Thanks again.

No, you can't have a formula and a value in a cell, so it has to be VBA.

Bob,
I Copy and Paste your code exactly the way you wrote it. is there anything
else I need to know or change? Is: '<== change to suit, on your codes for me
or do it as is?

Thanks again.

Bob,
Your code worked. I just have to incorporate it with my spreadsheet.

Thanks for your help.

Bob,
Your code is actually working great for me. I just have one request, I
wanted to add a cell where I can actually add to the Balance Inventory. So
Basically Column D is to add to Column B.

Thanks in advance.

The code that I gave takes the value in C and adds it to the value in B and
clears C.

Are you saying that now you want to take the value in D and add it to B?
Clear D after?

Bob,
The code you gave me worked. I just need to add more.
Col B is the current Balance.
Col C is the items used so it needs to be subracted from the current balance.
Col D is items added to the balance so number should be added to col B.

Thanks a bunch.
