Default Adding values generated by "IF" Statement

Change your formula to
=IF(D50,150,0)

You will need to format your cells as £. What you have is text and not
numbers. You can not perform calculations on text.

I have a spreadhseet that contains an "IF" statement as follows:

=IF(D50,"£150.00","0"). This statement works fine. I want to add up the
total at the bottom of the column containing the formula, but the =SUM
function doesn't appear to recognise the £150.00 as a value - I cannot get it
to "see" the amount.

I know this probably has a very simple solution but I've been working 12-14
hour days for 3 weeks without a break and cannot work out the solution
myself. Any help would be more appreciated than a bottle of gin tonight.

Thanks
