select a cell with a number, then (ctrl) select other cells with numbers...
the sum of the cells should display at the bottom, with each additional cell
that you select... how do i set this up/do this???

Right-click on Status Bar and select Sum from the list.

If you don't see the Status Bar, go to ViewStatus Bar.

Sounds like you may have that area set to either 'None'. Right-click on the
bottom bar and a pop-up should appear. The pop-up menu should have a list...
None / Average / Count / Count Nums / Max / Min / Sum
Left-Click on 'Sum'

Hopefully, this will fix your issue.
Sincerely,
Gary Brown
