Default Adding more then the allowable 30!

An empty cell equates to 0. No need to enter it.

Just copy the empty cell and PSSpecialAdd

Assuming you have formatted all to General beforehand.

If that's the case, it means your data is text, not numbers. It will make
your life easier if you converted your data to numbers, then all functions
will work for you. To convert to numbers:

1. Put 0 in an empty cell.
2. Copy that cell.
3. Highlight your range.
4. Right click on your range, and choose Paste Special...Add
5. Delete the cell from point 1

I want to sum AM113 to AM175 I've tried the numerous ways I've found in
the
answers in other posts however it always shows an answer of 0 and it
doesn't
work. If anyone has any suggestions I would appreciate it. The number
it
is
calculating in those cells are not by any means complicated. They are
all
1.
Thanks!
