    Sum Values not adding up

    When I hi-lite values in column (B) they don't add up in the bottom right area for Average Count Sum
    Only the Count will show a total.

    In column (C) it works?

    Thank you foo your time

    The values in B are text, not numbers.

    Re: Sum Values not adding up

    As Ali has said, the values in column B are text. Those in column C are numeric. The difference is that you (or someone) has manually entered the dollar sign followed by a space. If you do a global replace of "$ " by nothing, it should convert the values to numbers.
