So basically every day I have some expenses and on top I have the total. If the pattern is always the same (vsum(@+I..@+II)) I would like to have that formula every time I add a new thing. Now supposing that I always write the same day I pay best thing would be to have an automatic system that asks me the various fields and insert them in the table, does it make sense? | DATA | WHAT | WHERE | HOW MUCH | |------------------+------------+-------------+----------| | [2009-09-25 Fri] | | | 28.95 | |------------------+------------+-------------+----------| | | food | supermarket | 7.85 | | | ticket bus | | 2.3 | | | tea + ice | ice uno | 4.4 | | | ticket | | 14.4 | |------------------+------------+-------------+----------| | [2009-09-26 Sat] | | | 41 | ... This was an example of the data. I'm not quite sure that this data structure would be later easy to manipulate, what do you think? Better solutions??
