Ignoring negative number
I want to be able to total up a column of numbers, sometimes there will be negative numbers in this column that I want to ignore, how can I write the formula to ignore all negative numbers. -- my47620 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ my47620's Profile: http://www.excelforum.com/member.php...o&userid=28522 View this thread: http://www.excelforum.com/showthread...hreadid=508667 |

Ignoring negative number
I don't understand what you mean. How would I write the formula if I want to add say B1=A1+A2+A3+A4 and if any of these have a negative number it will ignore it when it puts it in B1.

Try what Max gave you.
That is exactly what it will do, sum all values in column A that are great than 0. If you don't want the whole column, then limit the range =SUMIF(A1:A10,"0") -- Regards Roger Govier "my47620" wrote in message ... I don't understand what you mean.
