Hi All.

I have a multitabbed spreadsheet and I want to Sum a total and Count the number of items (on tab 1 for example)and enter the totals on tab 2. Does anyone know how to create each formula while referencing tab 1? Thanks DAVE
 
You should just be able to use the formula wizard and do a sum where the selection range is on tab 1.

The easiest way, IMHO:
[ul][li]On Sheet2, type [blue]=sum([/blue][/li]
[li]Click on Tab1 and select whatever range you want[/li]
[li]Press [Enter][/li][/ul]

Now just repeat the steps above, except replace SUM with COUNT.
