split dollars and cents

[yodochi]

hi, how do i split dollars and cent in 2 colums and at the end sum it,
for example: A1 Dollar, B1 cents, A2 dollar, B2 cents and in A3 and B3
the sum result of A1,A2 and B1 B2.
thanks for help

The easiest is to pick the column column (A), do Data->Text to Columns click
next in the next screen select other and put a . in the box and hit finish.
Column b must be empty before you do this. The just autosum at the bottom.

=SUM(B1:B2)/100+SUM(A1:A2)

Don't both, add directly

=SUMPRODUCT(INT(A1:A2))

=SUMPRODUCT(MOD(A1:A2,1))

But if you want Ron's result split between A3 & B3 as requested, then
A3 =INT(SUM(B1:B2)/100+SUM(A1:A2))
B3 =MOD(SUM(B1:B2)+100*SUM(A1:A2),100)

The most obvious problem with that is if you have fractions of cents & these
try to round up values greater than 99.5 to display as 100 cents. In that
case you may need to do rounding in the formulae.

In A3 put =SUMPRODUCT(INT(A1:A2))

In B3 put =SUM(A1:A2)-A3
