Help on this formula
Is there a better way to write this formula? =SUM(G6:H6:I6:J6:L6)*17.5% I noticed writing it this way, F6 is automatically added to the sum.

Probably not since you are not using consecutive cells. But then again, there maybe a way to do it. -- iasiddiqui ------------------------------------------------------------------------ iasiddiqui's Profile: http://www.excelforum.com/member.php...o&userid=37543 View this thread: http://www.excelforum.com/showthread...hreadid=571823 |

What exactly are you trying to do there? Sum G6, H6, I6, J6, K6 and L6 or do
you want to leave K6 out of the sum? "Timeferret" wrote: Is there a better way to write this formula? =SUM(G6:H6:I6:J6:L6)*17.5% I noticed writing it this way, F6 is automatically added to the sum.

Help on this formula
There has to be, because that is really confusing!. I don't see where F6
gets involved, it doesn't for me. What cells exactly are you trying to add? -- HTH Bob Phillips (replace somewhere in email address with gmail if mailing direct) "Timeferret" wrote in message ...

Hmmm, if that is the case I will have to swap columns K and L around.

Help on this formula
What does a , mean in a formula? What does " mean in a formula? What do
parethesis mean and brackets mean? I have never learned how to write a formula, other than a basic ones, because I cannot understand how to enter the commas, periods, parethesis, etc. where they belong so as to arrive at correct result. I have never understood this and all the Excel for Dummie do not address such basic stuff I guess. Can some one please explain?

Help on this formula
Each of the functions which can be used in a formula has its own help
facility available in Excel. If you click on the function in the formula bar, & then use the "fx" link just to the left of the formula bar it will lead on to help on that function, and show you the syntax required & explain the parameters needed as inputs (and allow you to go on to help on other similar functions through the "see also" link). -- David Biddulph "Sharon" wrote in message ...
