Try something like this:

A1: =SUMPRODUCT((MOD(COLUMN(A2:AD2),2)=1)*(A2:AD20)*A 2:AD2)

That formula add the values from Row_2 in odd-numbered columns where the
cell value is greater than zero.

Is that something you can work with?

I have 30 columns and need to add every other column, but don't want to
include the cell if it's a negative.
=A2+C2+E2+G2, etc.

Someone else designed the spreadsheet and I was hoping not to have to redo
the whole thing to make it a sum formula.

Thanks

How many range areas are you trying to sum? Are there only a few or many?
Can you give an example of what you think the formula might look like?

How do I omit a cell that contains a negative number in an addition formula?
I can't use sum because there are cells in between.
