    Trying to sum the number in cells from multiple worksheets

    I'm trying to sum the B2 cell in multiple tabs within the same workbook and it isn't working for me. So far my formula looks like this:

    =SUM(B2,'WK 1 Summary'!,B2,WK 2 Summary'!B2,WK 3 Summary'!B2,WK 4 Summary'!)

    I've also tried it like this:

    =SUM('WK 1 Summary'!B2,WK 2 Summary'!B2,WK 3 Summary'!B2,WK 4 Summary'!B2)

    Can anyone please tell me why this isn't working?

    On your 2nd formula you are missing the apostrophe from the start of the Wk2, 3 & 4 sheet names, they should be the same as the Wk 1

    I got it to work with this:

    =SUM('WK 1 Summary:WK 4 Summary'!B2)

    Thanks all!

    Re: Trying to sum the number in cells from multiple worksheets

    Is there a way to do this in a particular cell across multiple workbooks (spreadsheets?)

    The reason I ask is that there are 3 spreadsheets that each agent in my department uses to track their cases and I want to pull stats from their overview tabs into a totally different spreadsheet that will record the totals for the entire department.
