Hi Richard

click in an unused cell (maybe on another worksheet) and choose copy
select your "numbers" and choose edit / paste special - ADD
hopefully this will solve the problem.

I imported some numbers from another program into Excel, and although the
numbers look fine in Excel, I am unable to add the numbers in Excel. When
I
do the "Sum" command, it returns "0".

Can someone help?
