Many thanks (Q1 I solved by splitting the arguments up)

Q1: A formula such as =SUM(A1:IP1) has only one argument, so please tell
us what your formula looks like

Q2: You must be working in compatibly mode - making Excel 2007 behave as
Excel 2003. Save the file as an Excel 2007 file (it will get an extension
of XLSX , unless it has macros). Now when you open it, you will have all
the rows and columns of Excel 2007

I am using Excel 2007 and have a long spreadsheet that goes from Column A
to Column IP.

Firstly, when I try to put in a formula to add cells along the way to a
total in Column IP - I get a message saying that 'more argument shave
been specified for this function than are allowed in the current file
format'

How do I get it to include all the cells I want to add up along the row
without this message?

Also, When trying to expand the spreadsheet to column JA, I am told that
I cannot go any further than IV, as that is where the end is marked and I
have followed the instructions given to change this but nothing happens

Hope someone can help
