    Cover sheet formula

    I am looking for a formula that will add the same cell from multiple pages in a spreadsheet.

    Example of pages with different titles:

    joe1, joe2, joe3, al1, al2, al3, jane1, jane2, jane3

    I just want to add cell L23 from sheets named al1, al2, al3.

    Any help would be appreciated.

    Thanks,

    Multiple page or multiple sheet?

    "Add cell" means to calculate SUM value from L23 in sheets amed al1, al2, al3, and Where is the result put in ?

    Do I have to list them each out or is there a way to say all of the Al*.*!L23?

    Without the use of VBA, you have to list them out.

    Re: Cover sheet formula

    You can put the worksheets you want to total between two blank worksheets say called Start and End and then use a formula like this: =SUM(Start:End!L23)

    Use code tags when posting your VBA code: [code] Your code here [/code]
