I am attempting to add a column using the SUM formula, but Excel gives a total of 0 because I have blank cells in the column.
How do I add a column ignoring the blank cells so I can get an accurate total??
Somethings up there . . . Excel is normally quite happy to have empty cells in a range.
Either;
- You're perhaps using autosum, which is only going to the first empty cell? Check the formula covers the whole range. It should look like =sum(a1:a22) if it says =sum(a1) or something, it might be a problem.
- Are you entering numbers as text? If a cell is formatted as text, excel won't recognise it as a number.
