automatic sum cell in table

hi all

i looking for lisp that can calculate a sum of cells by clicking on the cell i want.

i have many tables that i have to make sum for every colum

and its difecult to do this foe every table

some openion ??!!

sorry about my english

A google should find an answer but if you want a sum above a cell via lisp you can get the last row number of a table and then say ask how many gaps down and put sum function in that cell. I dont have an answer but sure some one will.

Pretty sure it was something like vla-get-rows is to bottom of table. Need header info as well as you need to subtract from total rows. I would check cells for a value so you get true last value but need to check all columns. If enter a row number bigger than table then add rows then add sum formula.

thank u .

any other idea

I moved your thread to the AutoLISP, Visual LISP & DCL Forum.

Try it.

But this is not lisp, not vba. This program.

SumTable.zip

Had a bit of time so thought I would have a go in lisp, credit though to Lee Ambrosius for get cell picked.

Just pick top of column cell to be summed, this is very much a version 1 as I can see a few questions coming.

I am sure can do the pick cell a bit better using a entsel.

(addsum-table)

I WANT SUM ALL THE COLUM TO THE CELL BELOW "TOTAL"

the table not always 7 rows it may any numbers of rows

its good . but i want it sum to autocad not an external windows

and write the sum in the cell i want
