Thanks, Vergel. I made a booboo. I think your scenario sounds more like it!

>You could try the following:
>1. Sum up the data at the bottom of the column that you want to get a % of.
>For example, if data is from C3 to C22, your formula would be =SUM(C3:C22) in

>2. Then, insert a new column to the right of the data column C.
>To do this, click anywhere on column C (per our example), then click Insert on 
>the Menu, then column.
>3. On the new column D that is created, type the formula Ã/$C$23 (again, per 
>example).
>4. Copy the formula to the other cells in column D that correspond to each 
>company. The total of the answers should equal 1. Convert all the decimals to 
>%.
