Keep getting #### when summing numbers
 
I am summing a range of 4 values and the output box shows: ####

Even when I remove the formula and type the correct sum in, it still comes
up ####

It won't allow me to put it in the box. If there is only one value to be
summed it shows that correctly, but not any numbers after that.

Try widening the column!

#### means there is not enough room in the column for the result. Autofit,
widen (Format | Column) or stretch (rest mouse between column heading letters
and click hold and drag to the right) the column so it's wide enough for the
value.
