Calculating a sum, exceptions for specific values
Utter newbie here so please forgive stupid questions.
I have a column with values that I would like to sum up, so far no problem. However, if someone enters a specific number, this cell is to be ignored and excluded from the total sum. Can this be done somehow? |

Calculating a sum, exceptions for specific values
RedBeard,
Array enter (Enter using Ctrl-Shift-Enter) a formula like =SUM(IF(A1:A10<10,A1:A10)) where 10 is the value that you want ignored. A non-array entered formula would be =SUMPRODUCT((A1:A10<10)*A1:A10) HTH, Bernie MS Excel MVP "RedBeard" wrote in message ... Utter newbie here so please forgive stupid questions.

Duh! (smacking forehead)
And, of course, =SUMIF(A1:A10,"<10") HTH, Bernie MS Excel MVP "RedBeard" wrote in message ... Utter newbie here so please forgive stupid questions.

If by specific number yuo mean 425, for example, then =SUMIF(A1:A100,"<425")
will do it. Is that what you mean? "RedBeard" wrote: Utter newbie here so please forgive stupid questions. I have a column with values that I would like to sum up, so far no problem.
