Summing Across Worksheets
Posted by Gavagan on July 25, 2001 6:49 AM
Within a workbook with 60 sheets, I am looking to sum the same cell from every sheet, for example: summing every a100 cell in the workbook. Is there a way to do this: with a function(this would be easiest), or with VBA?

Use the consolidation function. No problem!

See the Excel Help topic for "Refer to the same
cell or range on multiple sheets by using a 3-D
reference".

Yes, first put in your =sum(
then goto the first sheet and click on the cell you want.
then with the shift key pressed highlight all the sheets you need, then hey presto you should have someting like.
=SUM(Sheet2:Sheet60!C10)
BE WARNED!! this only work with consecutive sheets (no gaps) as the Control key can't be used instead
you can use a comma
=SUM(Sheet2:Sheet3!D10,Sheet5:Sheet60!D10)
but it does give you same problem of long formulas
