i have a cell on my spreadsheet that i want to have a
numerical value increase daily automatically starting from
the day that it is inputed. from example in a cell if put
the value of $0.50, i want it to increase everyday by
$0.50 automatically until i put a stop on it.
 
IN cell A1 put your start date.......
in cell A2 put =today()
in cell A3 put =(B8-B7)*0.5, and format this cell for currency.....

i want it to automatically increase everyday without
inputing the dates everyday. then i mind as well change it
myself. i will not know when the last day is until that
day comes. point is to automatically increase every day
without doing anything to it
 
Two problems.........first, somehow I did a typeo and gave you the wrong
formula for cell A3.......it should have been =(A2-A1)*.5 instead of
=(B8-B7)*.5........sorry about that......

Second, I apparently didn't make it clear that you only have to do this
typing in these three cells once.......the formula =today() will
automatically display the date of whatever day it is that you open the
workbook........and the formula =(A2-A1)*.5 will automatically
calculate back to the start date and give you your value of 50 cents per
day......and don't forget to format cell A3 as currency.
