I think you have too many quotes. Try this

.Offset(2, (columncount)).Formula = "=SUM(" & .Cells(6, columncount).Address & ":" & .Cells(200, columncount).Address & ")"

Why does the following return an error 1004?

.Offset(2, (columncount)).Formula = "=SUM(" & .Cells(6, columncount) & ":" & .Cells(200, columncount) & ")"""

With Range("weekending")(1, 1)
.Offset(0, (columncount)).Value = monthdate
'assigns weekending date to column heading on Worksheet("vendor_totals")
.Offset(1, (columncount)).Value = Sheets("sheet1").Range("h1").Value
'assigns sq footage value for week
.Offset(2, (columncount)).Formula = "=SUM(" & .Cells(6, columncount) & ":" & .Cells(200, columncount) & ")"""
'assign formula SUM(current column row6: current column row 200)
End With
