Simple but need help!

[Lin242]

I have a workbook sheet of different figures per cell and I need to add 2% to
each one of those figures as they are entered. I have looked through all of
the help sheets but I can't find the appropriate formula to do this. Can you
help.

Right click sheet tab>view code>insert this>change columns I to suit.

Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
If Intersect(Target, Columns("I")) Is Nothing Then Exit Sub
Application.EnableEvents = False
If IsNumeric(Target) Then Target = Target * 1.02
Application.EnableEvents = True
End Sub
Sub fixincase()
Application.EnableEvents = True
End Sub

I am sorry, I cannot understand that. Maybe I should clarify my question.
My worksheet (MExcel 2003) already contains columns of dollar amounts that I
want to add 2% to, and then as new dollar amounts are added they will
automatically be increased by that same percentage. If you could simplify
your answer slightly for me I'd really appreciate it.

I'm not sure, but did you try: an equation for multiplying or adding 2%?
=sum(I4*.02) or (I4+.02)??? Hope this helps???

I hope you didn't really intend to suggest =sum(I4*.02) ?
If you wanted =I4*.02, that will do the trick, and the SUM function is
unnecessary. Look up the SUM function in Excel help to see its syntax.

If you wanted =SUM(I4, I4*.02), then that would be appropriate syntax for
the SUM function, but =I4*1.02 would be easier.

You post stated,"I need to add 2% to each one of those figures as they are
entered.
What I provided will take a number such as 1 entered in the cell and change
THAT cell to 1.02
