Eliminating the high 4 values
 
Need help with a formula which sums the values in a range eliminating the 4
high values in the range.
Excel 2000- Thanks in advance

Eliminating the high 4 values
 
There may be a better way but this works.

Assuming your range is A1:A10. you can change it as per the need.

=SUM(A1:A10)-SUM(LARGE(A1:A10,1),LARGE(A1:A10,2),LARGE(A1:A10,3 ),LARGE(A1:A10,4))

Does that help?

Eliminating the high 4 values
 
Shorter version.

=SUM(A1:A10)-SUM(LARGE(A1:A10,{1,2,3,4}))
