It sounds like the calc mode's inadvertently set to Manual. Press F9 key,
does it now compute properly? To check/change calc mode, click Tools >
Options > Calculation tab > Check Auto > OK.

What do you mean, it's not adding it up?

Do you get the wrong total, a zero or an error?

If it's the wrong total or zero perhaps some of your numbers are text
Try to convert them to numeric or total them with

=SUMPRODUCT(--(A1:A10
