Remove the quotes from your numbers, since that makes them Text, and Sum()
ignores Text.
=IF(B3=$B$2+1,1,IF(B3=$B$2,2,IF(B3=$B$2-1,4,IF(B3=$B$2-2,8,0))))
OR,
Change your totaling formula to:
=A7+B7+C7+D7+E7+F7+G7+H7+I7+J7

I used multiple IF statements to return a number from 0 to 8. I now need
to
sum the results of the returned numbers in a row. When I use =Sum(A7:J7)
it
returns 0. How do I get a total on this Row?
Copy of statement
=IF(B3=$B$2+1,"1",IF(B3=$B$2,"2",IF(B3=$B$2-1,"4",IF(B3=$B$2-2,"8","0"))))
