Default Creating a summary page

Hello,

I am creating a summary page, when I type in the cell = (then I go get the
cell from the other page) if this other cell is a sum, I get 0.00 in my
summary.

Why is that? and how can i fix it?

Regards

You could modify your formula.

Formulas like:
='sheet 2!a1

would become
=if('sheet 2!a1="","",'sheet 2!a1)

If you really want to hide the 0's:

=if('sheet 2!a1=0,"",'sheet 2!a1)

If your =sum() formula is returning 0 and you think it's wrong, maybe your cells
aren't really numbers:

=SOMME(AZ22;AZ27;AZ43)
Reformat AZ22 as General (or anything but text) and reenter the value
same with AZ27 and AZ43

Or change your formula to:
=AZ22+AZ27+AZ43

Default Creating a summary page

If the formula in the other sheet's cell that you're linking is returning a
"correct" zero, then you should also be getting a zero in the linked cell??
Perhaps it's more a case that your calc mode's inadvertently set to manual.
Do a quick check: Click Tools Options Calculation tab Check "Automatic"
OK. Does the linked cell now return correctly (presumably the sum over in

the other sheet is a non-zero value)?

I have done the proposed steps, but it is still not working it gives me a
zero, and the other cell is a sum like this:
=SOMME(AZ22;AZ27;AZ43) I set to automatic also.

The sum of the formula is :122,395.00 $
My link formula is :
=Données!AZ44
Answer is 0
I also tried this formula:
=SI(Données!AZ44="";"";Données!AZ44)
Answer is 0

um, maybe just try a quick check ...
Are you pointing to the correct* cell in the above?
*the one in the other sheet with the result: 122,395.00 $

If the above is not it, can you upload
& post a direct link to your sample
