I am an old die hard. Just updated from Office 97 to Office xp. Believe me
I'm no whiz.

The function bar in 97 had and x a checkmark and and equal sign. This
totaled all figures in the cell. Now I only have a fx and I have no idea how
to simply get it to total.

Also my cell formulas have changed. I get the correct answer, but do I make
a new formula the old way or a new way.

Thanks,

Pat
