It's hard for me to tell exactly what you're trying to do, since I don't
know what cells A1 and B2 represent.
Couple of suggestions:
1) using both SUM() and + isn't necessary - you can use either
=A1 + B2
or
=SUM(A1,B2)
2) If you have something like:
A B C D
1 Month Amount FY To date Project to Date
2 January 100 =B2 =B2+6248
3 February 150
Then one way would be to use
C2: =IF(B3<>"",B3 + C1,"")
D2: =IF(B3<>"",B3 + D1,"")
which you can then copy down as far as necessary.
If that's not what you're doing, post back with more detail.

Thanks for the suggestions. This is a spread sheet that keeps track of
safety and safety hours. In one row I need hours next row would be injuries.
This is what the columns are:
A B C
Current Month FY to Date Project to date
(carried year to year)
My project to date is 6248. When I put an amount in Current month I need it
to carry over and add to B and C. When I get it to add correctly, and i
enter amount in the next row under current month it adds it to the first rows
b and c. I need these rows to all be seperate. Any help would be appreciated
