Highlighted Cell group provides a Count instead of a Sum in bottom right
Sometimes when I download a file into excel it doesn't allow me to ad the group. Additionally, when highlighting the group when it i supposed to give a SUM in the bottom right (off the worksheet), i shows a count. I've verified the cells are formatted as numbers. I for instance I overwrite the existing amount with the same number i becomes addable. I would like to be able to toggle between these tw abilities. Thanks.

Hi the numbers are probably stroed as 'Text'.

frank.kabelNo, as I've already stated, these are formated as numbers. Additionall if cells A1 and A2 were formated as text but contained the character "1" and "2" respectively they would still be added when highlighte instead of counted. Wonder if there is a way to show that dispite my post being replied to that my question was not answered without having to repost anew -- Message posted from http://www.ExcelForum.com
MACRE0.1cmvqjYour question was answered. Once a "number" is entered as text, changing the number format doesn't convert it to a number - it stays text. Did you try the suggested solution? Did you really try entering "1" and "2" in A1:A2 and getting a Sum in the status bar? For me, I get SUM=0 In article <MACRE0.1cmvqj@excelforum-nospam.com>, MACRE0 <<MACRE0.1cmvqj@excelforum-nospam.com>> wrote: > No, as I've already stated, these are formated as numbers.

jemcgimpseyYou're partially correct. While I did try entering the characters 1 and 2 I entered them in a ne spreadsheet formatted as general, which I then changed to text. Tha one adds. If I first make it text and then highlight it doesn't but was still able to take those two cell and paste special add them an have it become numbers. I am not able to do that with some of th other spreadsheets that are created. Secondly the aspect of togglin between these two views was not answered.

Query that returns 0 instead of null
Hi, I have a query that returns two columns. Some of the fields in the second column contain null (are blank). How do I get these to return 0 instead, using the criteria option.

Dealing with blank cells
hi again - I hope it's OK to ask 2 questions on the same day! This problem is related to the one I posed earlier, but more general. Let's say a sheet has 3 columns. Columns A and B contain numbers, but there are also varying numbers of blank cells. I'm looking for a formula I can drag down in column C that sums the B value (if it exists) and the first A value encountered on the same row or above. Here is a sample. A B C 6 1 7 7 13 3 9 8 4 12 2 10...

How to create an "OR" condition instead of an "AND" condition
In Outlook 2007, I would like to create a filter using an OR condition instead of an AND condition. For example, I know how to create a filter that will show me all of my contacts who live in "Boston" AND have the last name "Smith." However, I want to create a filter that will show me the contacts that live in "Boston" OR have the last name of "Smith." How can I accomplish this? I will appreciate advice. Two searches, one for each condition. Robert Judge wrote: > In Outlook 2007, I would like to create a filter using an OR cond...

Unread count that won't go away
For some bizarre reason, OE keeps saying that I have unread messages. I'll do a catch-up and the unread number disappears, but then when I do a Ctrl-Shift-M, or a Sync from the menu, the count reappears - and no, there are no new messages. I even tried resetting a group, but the problem came back. It is annoying. Windows XP, OE 6.00.2900.5512 Is it microsoft.public.windowsxp.help_and_support per chance? It is a sync issue with the servers. They are what we refer to as "Ghost Messages" and there is nothing you can do about it. Those messages do not really...
