When I've used Excel on other computers, I've often found the calculator at
the lower right bottom of the screen helpful. If I highlight a range of
cells, this "calculator" will say SUM = 245, for example. It can be changed
to give max, min, average, count, and count nums. My current Excel setup
does not have this feature. Does anyone know how to add it?

Thanks!

Maybe you're not showing the statusbar?

Tools|Options|view tab|check statusbar

And you'll have to select at least a couple of non-empty cells.
