iWork Numbers 09 increment a cell value

Question

I am working with Numbers 09 and Applescript. I want to add a value in one cell to an existing value in another cell, replacing the existing value with the sum as a value. This would be similar to the copy/paste-add command in Excel. Thanks for your help. -Rob

Got it... I was trying to make it too difficult. Calling back to my ancient training in FORTRAN and Pascal.

copy 0.1 to xno tell application "Numbers" activate tell document 1 tell sheet 1 tell table 1 copy the value of cell "B2" to xno xno - 200 copy xno to the value of cell "C2" end tell end tell end tell end tell
