Default Some Help Needed on getting info out of a cell from a formula

You can separate the totals for the +'s and the -'s by using Sumif().

For actual total:
=Sum(C1:J1)

For totaling only +'s:
=Sumif(C1:J1,"0")

For totaling only -'s:
=Sumif(C1:J1,"<0")
OR ... if you don't want the minus sign to show:
=Abs(Sumif(C1:J1,"<0"))
Or
=-Sumif(C1:J1,"<0")

Hi Ragdyer,

Ok that seemed to work great and Thank You.

Now on to my next issue with this spreadsheet as there are a couple issues
if you don't mind.

In Tab2 = PPS. I have to keep track of Point Penalties for each week. I
need a TOTAL point Penalties and Current Point Penalties Columns.

The Total Point Penalties I have to add any Point Penalty for each week
which I know is say =SUM(C1:J1) entered which will add all points

penalties
in those cells together and give a total in the K1 Cell per the formula.

But
if I subtract a point penalty or 2 by adding in a cell -1 between c1 and

j1
it will subtract that from the total in k1. That is good as thats what I
want it to do, but I need another column (Current Point Penalties) that

will
keep ALL +Penalty totals without subtracting any point penalties that is
entered in any given cell as -1, -2 and so on.

Hope I explained that right.

Thanks Much in advance.

Ron

The Sum() is superfluous, try this to eliminate errors:

=IF(AND(C7<0,ISNUMBER(C7)),B7/2/C7,0)

Hi All,

Ok I have created a Workbook using 3 pages Tab1=RPM_Main, Tab2=PPS and
Tab3=Laps.

I have the info from cells on Tab2 and Tab3 going to Tab1, However on
Tab1=RPM_Main in certain cells there is nothing to compute and is

given me
an
error #DIV/0!

The Formula I am using is In Column "D" is =SUM(B7/2/C7). Now the

Column
"C" may have a 0=ZERO brought over from the Tab2 worksheet as there is

no
data computed and it is giving me the #DIV/0! error. How can I change

this
formula to do away with that Error? I have some other issues with

this
Spreadsheet and will discuss each one once I get other issues resolved

to
help keep my sanity, LOL.

Thanks Much In advance.

Ron
