Totalling a group of worksheets
 

How do I summarize a continguous series of worksheets on to a summary page?
e.g. I have a number of worksheets A,B,C,.......K. I also have a summary
worksheet. I want to total cells A1 in the group of worksheets and show the
total in the summary worksheet

Try this:

On the Summary sheet, select the cell where you want the A1 summary to
display.

Type =sum(
Then click on the Sheet A tab
Hold the [Shift] key down
Click on the last sheet's tab
Release the [Shift] key
Type ) and press [Enter]

The formula should look like: =SUM(A:K!A1)


Does that help?

I like this technique...

Create two new worksheets--one to the far right and one to the far left.

Call them Start and End

Then using a sheet (Summary) that is outside this "sandwich" of worksheets:

=Average(start:end!AA32)

Then you can drag sheets in and out of that sandwich to play what if games.

I'd put a couple of notes on each of these sheets:

"don't delete this sheet!"

And protect the worksheet so that people don't use it for real data.
