This will do the same thing:

=SUM(INDEX(A:E,ROW(),))

I am setting up a spreadsheet that with add columns in a row, but need
it to be applicable to various rows, I hacked this formula together so
far:
=SUM(INDIRECT("A"&ROW()), INDIRECT("B"&ROW()), INDIRECT("C"&ROW()),
INDIRECT("D"&ROW()), INDIRECT("E"&ROW()))
Anyone have a suggestion how to improve this formula?
