                    not clear.
in A3the formula is
=a2-a1
in B4 type the formula(it does not matter whether A4 if filled or not)
=A4-A2
format A3 and B4 as number with no decimals
now whatever you enter in A4 automatically B4 will change.
if A4 is later than A2 then you get positive number otherwise negative number.
This solution appears trivial and that is why I doubt whether I have understood you.

                    try this
=IF(A3 > 0,A1+A3,A1+A2)
            =IF(A3 > 0,A1+A3,A1+A2)

I will try to explain it better
i am looking fo a formula which calculates
B1=Sum(A1+A2 , but if A3 has a value then it schould be used instead of A2 , B1=SUM(A1+A3) instead)
Right now I have two colums with 2 calculations and if one is true then I use conditional formatting to hide the other calculation which leaves me with a big black coloum on the sheet.
