Table names in formulas in Excel 2007
In Excel 2007, I get an error when trying to use table names in formulas. Eg.
I am trying to 'Sum' a column of figures whose heading is 'Jan' and I have entered the function as =SUM(Jan). The option 'Use table names in formulas' has been activated. Jan 223 223 114 =(Sum)Jan The result is #NAME? The same procedure works perfectly in Excel 2003. Thanks |
