Hi,

A cell may be formatted as numbers, but the contents may still be text,
as it would be if you entered '1
single quote 1

assuming B8 is a cell with a 1, what happens if you put in another cell
=B8, and then try =B8+1
Is the 1 (or 2) selected from a formula =if(a1=b1,1,2) etc? - if so can
you post that formula, or can you copy that portion of the worksheet and
post it?

Hi
Thank you for taking an interest.
The cells are all formated as numbers.
I just tried them as text but it still won't do anything with the 1's.

Hi,

Is the number '1' on the left or right side of the column, ie is the
'1' a number as the '2' is, or a text item.

I am using Excel 2003 to run a Workbook for doing the running
statistics
for
a Darts Association. I use Data Consolidation in a Macro to update
the
Workbook after entering all of the data for a round. My problem
arose
with
the ladder when two teams had a draw, normally there is 2 points
given
for a
win and this works fine but for a draw there is only 1 point given
and
the
consolidation will not sum the one point. I tried using data
consolidate
without the macro and it still would not do it. In another part of
the
ladder
data is consolidated to sum the number of games played, this data
is
added 1
at a time and this consolidates fine. I am at a loss as to what is
happening,
it seems that Excel does not want to recognise a 1 in a column
that
has
always had 2's in it, if that is possible.
