Sum

What is the difference between entering a formula i.e =(b5+c5+d5) and using sum in a formula?

RE: Sum

sum is just easier.

if you have loads of cells that you want to add up next to each other, you don't want to type =B5+C5+D5 etc, you just type =sum(B5:D5) this will add up all the cells between and including B5 & D5


 

Excel tip:

Cycling through Absoulte cell references

If you are working with formulas in excel and need to convert your formula to an absolute formula, instead on manually adding in the $dollar signs you can highlight the specific part of your formula and press the F4 key.

You can cycle through all the absolute options by pressing the button (up to four times)
