Sum of random cells with positive data

[Guest]

How do I sum numbers from random cells (in other words they are not
sequential or patterned) only if the cells contain positive numbers?

 

[Dave Peterson]

Are the cells within a single range?

=SUMIF(A1:I99,">0")

If you have to avoid some ranges, you can do it in stages:

=SUMIF(A1:c99,">0")+SUMIF(f1:I28,">0")

Hi Susannah

use the SUMIF function
e.g.
=SUMIF(A1:A5,">0")
