AutoSum

If i have Multiple tables and want the 'Total' cell at the bottom of the sheet to be every figure from every table added together, what do I do?

As I understand it when you click AutoSum it just adds the figures in the column in which you've clicked it.

RE: AutoSum

Hi Neil,

If you click on the Autosum excel highlights what it thinks you want to add up. If you want to change it you can drag your cursor on a different range.

You can also use the Autosum to add up non-adjacent cells, to do this you have to use =SUM(A1,B1,C1) just separate the cells with a comma and you can do it that way. You can either type in the cell references or click in to the appropriate cell using your mouse.

Good luck

Tracy


 

Excel tip:

Quickly copy a formula across sheets

Suppose you have a formula in cell Sheet1!B2, say =A1*5%, that you wish to copy to cell B2 on Sheet2, Sheet3 and Sheet4. Instead of using copy and paste, try this: (1) Select Sheet1!B2. (2) Group Sheet1 with the worksheets Sheet2, Sheet3 and Sheet4 by holding down Ctrl and clicking on the tabs of the sheets to group them. (3) Press the F2 key, then immediately press Enter to copy the formula in Sheet1!B2 across the grouped sheets.

Remember to ungroup the sheets afterwards! Right-click on any tab and choose Ungroup Sheets to do that.
