Please disregard previous post
Further to my post below I have been able to come up with the
following which calculates & inserts interest amount in D5. (Copies &
pastes the last balance & applies a formula)
1.Worksheets("Sheet1").Activate
2. ActiveCell.FormulaR1C1 = "Interest"
3. ActiveCell.Offset(rowOffset:=-1, columnOffset:=3).Activate
'last balance
4. ActiveCell.Copy
5. ActiveCell.Offset(rowOffset:=1, columnOffset:=-1).Activate
6. ActiveSheet.Paste
7. Application.CutCopyMode = False
8. ActiveCell.FormulaR1C1 = "=R[-1]C+RC[-1]*0.1/12" 'need to
make non absolute
9. ActiveCell.Offset(rowOffset:=1, columnOffset:=-3).Activate 'next
row Date column
However I'm not sure how to modify the code (line 8) so that it can be
applied to the last balance row each month. Currently it keeps
referencing E3. From E4 down the column there is the formula =E3+D4-C4
(to deduct payments & add interest) (balance is a negative).
Sorry for the multiple posts.
Regards
Pete
