Default How to SUM for indeterminate number of rows?

In that case, why not =SUM(B:B)-SUM(B1:B2) ?

The only problem is this seems to sum the entire column.

I need it to start summing at B3 down to whatever is left, because on
the first two rows are numbers I don't want included in the summing.

Any way to do that?

Thanks!

You could just do:

=SUM(B:B)

as long as the formula is not in column B - it will ignore blanks and
text.

Hope this helps.

everything from B3 to the last number, whatever row it might be on?

Is there a way to combine it with the COUNT function to accomplish
this goal?

Please show me an example
