Default How do I make AutoSum really Sum, not Subtotal

If you have a filter applied then it will automatically select subtotal
instead of sum since subtotal ignores filtered rows
whereas sum will sum all rows

Since the upgrade to Office07 (yuck), pushing the AutoSum button, or Alt+=
gives me a SUBTOTAL() function instead of SUM. Of course I can manually
type
the SUM formula, but that isn't the point. I'm trying to sum a few
general
ledger journal entries to validate that they equal zero, and am now
getting
totals because it isn't summing the whole, but the SUBTOTAL pieces only -
and
who needs normally? Anyway, other than re-mapping my keyboard shortcut,
or
manually typing SUM(), is there any way to direct AutoSum to really do a
AutoSum, not a SUBTOTAL?
Thanks!
