Incorrect total
 
I have used the sum command in Excel 2003 and it keeps calculating the wrong
total. any suggestions.

Hi
could you give an example. But maybe it is just a rounding issue. See:

Without any other information, the only suggestion I can make is that either
your assumptions regarding addition in Excel are incorrect, or the numbers you
think you are adding are not, in fact, the numbers that Excel is actually
adding.

Nope not a rounding issue..... a blonde issue. I have just discovered I had a
hidden cell in the equation. Thanks for responding.
