    Worst attachment thread

    One of the queries today contains what I believe is the most useless example worksheet Ive ever seen.

    The query was "I have list of values(numbers) on a particular column. The good thing is the list of numbers are spaced at constant intervals. I'm able to capture the list of numbers into an array but struggling to add all the numbers in the list i.e., adding all the numbers stored in this array from the list into a single cell. "

    and the workbook simply contained a single sheet with 3 cells (D4, D7, D10) populated with an integer in each.

    And that was it.


    Has anyone seen any even less descriptive or useful?

    EDIT: Theyve now updated the thread and the difference is remarkable > http://www.excelforum.com/showthread.php?t=1156967

    What really bugs me is the excessive formatting.

    Colored cells everywhere...

    Merged cells everywhere...

    Every cell has a border...
