Use the following array formula:
=SUM(SMALL(A1:A20,ROW(INDIRECT("1:10")))) Since this is an array formula, you must press Ctrl+Shift+Enter rather than just Enter when you first enter the formula and whenever you edit it later. If you do this properly, Excel will display the formula enclosed in curly braces {}. -- Cordially, Chip Pearson Microsoft MVP - Excel Pearson Software Consulting, LLC www.cpearson.com "Howdy " wrote in message ...

Any suggestions??? {=SUM(((A1:A20)<MEDIAN(A1:A20))*A1:A20)} Assuming of course the numbers are in A1:A20 Notice this is a formula array which must be entered with Cctrl+Shift+Enter, do not put the brackets, just type it and press Ctrl+Shift+Enter.
