Auto Sum

[Guest]

Hi I have created a worksheet with the unused cells hidden. i want to do an
auto sum but the total does not show. how do i get the total to show on the
last cell but not on the hidden one
Thanks

If the SUM cell is in a hidden row, it will remain hidden.

Where is SUM and what cells are hidden?

Bec,

If you're selecting the cells to be summed, then clicking the Autosum button, and the very
next row or column is hidden, then indeed the automatically-built SUM formula cell will be
hidden. You can use another method. Select the cell in which to have the SUM formula.
Click Autosum. It will guess which cells you want to sum, showing marching ants around
them. If that guess isn't correct, select the correct cells (drag through them), then press
Enter. If it is correct, just press Enter. If there are hidden cells along the way, they
may be included in the summed cells.
