It's an array formula. Are you commiting it as an array?
Do so by selecting the cell with the formula, pressing the F2 key to go into edit mode, then pressing Shift-Ctrl-Enter "Blues" wrote: Hello, Can anyone tell me why the following formula is returning a #VALUE! error? =SUM(B6*(B15:B22))+(B7*(C15:C22))+(B8*(D15:D22)) Its really bugging me, any help much appreciated. -- Blues ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Blues's Profile: http://www.excelforum.com/member.php...o&userid=30771 View this thread: http://www.excelforum.com/showthread...hreadid=525640 |

=(B6*(SUM((B15:B22)))+(B7*(SUM(C15:C22)))+(B8*(SUM (D15:D22))))

I don'y think SUM likes the multiplication within the brackets!
Try =(B6*SUM(B15:B22))+(B7*SUM(C15:C22))+(B8*SUM(D15:D 22)) "Blues" wrote: Hello, Can anyone tell me why the following formula is returning a #VALUE! error? =SUM(B6*(B15:B22))+(B7*(C15:C22))+(B8*(D15:D22)) Its really bugging me, any help much appreciated. -- Blues ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Blues's Profile: http://www.excelforum.com/member.php...o&userid=30771 View this thread: http://www.excelforum.com/showthread...hreadid=525640 |
