    Do you need data or Dates from one H,I,J in one column or what you have got on Sheet2 is your desired outcome?

    Well some of the date cells has the "general" formate so when i drag down that formula in second sheet, i only get dates which has the " Date " format.

    Re: Finding from different column

    =SUM(IF(ISERROR(DATEVALUE(Sheet1!H2:J2)),Sheet1!H2:J2,DATEVALUE(Sheet1!H2:J2)))

    and copy down. This one is an array formula so you need to confirm with ctrl+shift+enter, then copy down.

    Re: Finding from different column

    Well the previous formula did not work as well. I'm using it on second attachment.

    But i did notice cells that has the general formate does change its formate. Eg: I7 appears to be a date in "general format". I tried changing it to a number but it does not change..

    The file is to big for upload here.

    I do not see any new rows but a new column K with data
    Try this formula
    =SUM(IFERROR(--Sheet1!H2:K2,0))
    in B2 of Sheet2 Confirm COntrl+shift+enter copy down
