[mso] an EXCEL question.

I have created a simple spreadsheet which shows sales
to each customer on a daily basis, which is then
totalled to show the weekly sales. Each customers
total per week is then read by a further section and
sdded to a weekly record thus allowing me creat a
chart showing trends of ordering by each customer over
a year.

My problem is this:

The daily entries are maintained for the week creating
the end of week totals which are then added to the
weekly trend totals, but I then delete the daily
totals for the following weeks entries and lose the
previous weekly totals which make up my yearly trend
totals.

So I need to fix the weekly totals so that each week
can be added to the next.

below an simplified example

DAILY RECORD GIVING WEEKS TOTAL
 Mon Tues Wed THu Fri Sat Sun    Total
  4   8    6   5    5  10  10     48

The total is then read to create another section as:

YEARLY TRENDS and TOTALS

 Week 1      YEARLY TOTAL TO DATE

   48             ??

I somehow need to fix the previous weeks accumulated
figures to maintain a year  to date sales figure and
ultimately an end of year figure.

My only thought is to create a page for each day of
the year, but this does seem excessive.

Any thoughts would be appreciated

Norman West
