Errors in Excel 2007 Calculation
Hi,
I'm having problems with Excel 2007 When I total up a number of cells, the value that is shown is 0. For instance, totalling G3+j3+N3, I get 0. The referenced cells have values greater than zero Note: There is a notification of circular reference in one of the cells. However, I never encountered such a problem with previous versions of excel (zero value) Rgds Mike Tan |

This result would occur if you had text in the cells rather than numbers.
Text is typically left-justified, rather than right-justified. Is that what you see? Another way of checking is to use =istext(g3). If that returns true, you've found your problem.

In which cell you are applying the formula? The circular reference will
occur when the formula intersect with the current cell on which you are applying the formula.

Solve your circular reference problem, then see what number you get.
You'd get the same symptoms with Excel 2003; zero if an unresolved circular reference. -- David Biddulph "Mike Tan" <Mike wrote in message ...

Errors in Excel 2007 Calculation
Lets say that the cell J3 is a sum of three other cells (eg j4,j5 & j6), and
the circular reference occurs in j5. As in my previous example, let's say that P3=G3+j3+N3. Although the values in G3,J3 and N3 are greater than 0, P3 returns a zero value. Is the main cause the circular reference? Or is there a problem with Excel :) ? Rgds Mike tan "Ms-Exl-Learner" wrote: In which cell you are applying the formula?
