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.

Adding random cells togethr
I want to be able to add y2,aa2,ac2,ae2,ag2,a12,ak2,am2,ao2,aq2,as2,au2,av2,ax2,az2 together and return the result in bb2 I am using =sum(y2,aa2,ac2,ae2,ag2,a12,ak2,am2,ao2,aq2,as2,au2,av2,ax2,az2) however I only see the actual formula returned in the cell not the result. I have been able to do this in the past. Can anyone help with this problem? -- Kaylean Hi Kaylean, Perhaps BB2 was formatted as text before you entered the formula. Select it and hit F2 and Enter.

transparent background not working right
Hi I have a logo in CMYK colors, 300 dpi in tiff. format set for commercial printing. The problem I'm having is that i import it, then i go to the set transparent icon and the white background becomes transparent. The problem though is that even the white lettering becomes transparent. I've cut and pasted the logo it to a transparent background through photoshop but there is still a white background when I bring it in publisher. How can I make my logos background tranparent without making the letters transparent? -- Thanks a million! mJ wrote: > Hi I have a logo in CMY...

cell ranges in formulas
When referencing a cell range in a formula, is there a way to represent the cell range by referencing another cell. What I want to do is this, for example: say cells a1 thru a100 contain a number of values. I want to sum a certain subset of these today, but tomorrow I want to change that subset, so I'd like to enter the starting and ending point for my sum range into another cell, say b1 & b2 So if I enter the text "a6" in cell b1, and "a25" in cell b2, my sum formula should look like =sum(a6:a25). This give me the flexibility to change my sumrange very e...
Diagonal Cells format
How do I format the Label Row of a spreadsheet to be 45 diagonally instead of the standard horizontal format? Thanks Ross Hi Ross select the cells, choose format / cells - go to the alignment tab and play with the little dial on the right hand side of the dialog box (or type numbers in the box underneath).

Formatting and Grouping Columns
In Office 2000 in Excel when you select two columns and right click it included the option to "Unhide" or "Hide". In Office XP in Excel I can not select two columns it automatically expands the selection to include the Merged Row above it which includes all the columns below - not just the two I selected. When I select just two cells the right click does not include the option to "Unhide" or "Hide". I have to go to the format menu, select column and select "Unhide" or "Hide". Is there a way to select columns without including...

I need 1 formula to do the following: Sum of 2 cells then round up or down to 0 d.p.s (note: it must go either direction in rounding) I get this, my work is done! after 4 days. Tom picktr@wowway.co -- Message posted from http://www.ExcelForum.com Hi! If the cells are A1 and A2 the formula is =round(A1+A2,0) This rounds down if the result is less than "a half" and up if it i greater than or equal to "a half".
