Can you tell me how to go about naming the range?

Sorry. I don't think you can have the best of both worlds. You could try
naming the range H8:H88 to something like MyRange, then =Sum(MyRange), but
if you insert rows, you must insert them within the range for them to stick.

That seems to sum the intire column and I want to always sum is the rows
between 8 and 88.

Chad, why don't you try =SUM('worksheet 1'!H:H)
?

On worksheet 2 I am trying to use the sum function to calculate a
range of
cells in a column on worksheet 1. My problem is that when I insert a
row
within that sum range it expandes the formula. For example the
formula
before the inserted row would be =SUM('worksheet 1'!H8:H88), but after
I
insert the row it changes the formula to =SUM('worksheet 1'!H8:H89).
I
don't
want it to do that. I want it to keep the exact range that I define
in
the
first place regardless wether I insert or delete rows on worksheet 1.
Is
there a way to do this?

TIA!
