Use SUM with INDIRECT:

=SUM(INDIRECT("'worksheet 1'!H8:H89"))

That seems to sum the intire column and I want to always sum is the rows

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!
