How do I do the following

I want to sum the following range


This is my guess, but it didn't work

Dim x as currency

x = Sum(Range("OutstandingBalance"))

MsgBox x


Thanks for any help

Jos

I assume you want the simplest method in which case you already have your
answer. Another approach would be to do a For...Each Cell in your range and
then maintain a running total of each of the Cell.Values. I guess this
method is oly useful if there is anything else you want to do with the
numbers as well as simply SUM them.

Cheers, Max

I tried the code and got a debug error as follows


Method Range of Object Worksheet Failed


Thanks

Losse

not much to go wrong really ;-)

The sheet shouldn't matter as the range is defined. If the range name isn't
defined (a typo maybe), I get a slightly different error message:

Method 'Range' of object '_Global' failed

Perhaps it depends on the version of Excel ?
