Sum / Sumif
Hi,
The following formula works: =SUM(H1,F1,D1,D3,E3,G3) How do I do the same with Sumif? (with whatever criteria) Regards - Dave. |

Hi TM,

MS was thinking that most people would sum consecutive cells. They were
correct. Regards, Fred "Dave" wrote in message ... Hi TM, Thanks. Works a treat. But ouch! What what was MS thinking - making the simple things difficult? Regards - Dave. |

Ouch again. That hurts.
Seriously though, I was really wondering why SUM handled non-consecutive cells so well, while SUMIF handled them so badly... Daev. "Fred Smith" wrote: MS was thinking that most people would sum consecutive cells. They were correct. Regards, Fred |

Good point. Sum was obviously written by someone who cared about the end
user, and was interested in handling as many situations as possible. It, for example, is one of the few functions which handle 3D ranges (Sheet1:Sheet3!A1:B6). Unfortunately, MS did not insist on the same quality for most of the other functions, including Sumif. And, more annoying, they haven't bothered to add this functionality in future releases, included 2007. Regards, Fred. "Dave" wrote in message ... Ouch again. That hurts.

Hi FS,
Thanks for the info on summing 3D ranges. I didn't know that could be done. Always learning. Dave. |
