Mike, works perfectly.
Would you (or anyone smarter than me) explain how the formula works?

Hi,

Try this

=SUM(INDIRECT("A1:A" & A7))

Column A contains these five numbers: 9,2,3,5,8
Cell A7 contains the number 4

I need a formula that does the following:
Sum the numbers in column A up to the number of rows in A7.

Formula evaluates to 19 (9+2+3+5)

Thanks,
