autofilter question

Posted by Kevin on November 02, 2001 5:48 AM

I am using autofilter to filter out a column of dollar amounts based on certain criteria. I also have a cell that sums the column. When I filter out certain rows in the column, they are still included in the column total in my other cell's formula. Is there any way that I can sum only the rows in the column that have not been filtered out with autofilter?

Thanks in advance,
Kevin

Instead of using the SUM function, use the SUBTOTAL function, like this.

If your current formula is:

=SUM(A2:A200)

Change it to

=SUBTOTAL(9,A2:A200)

Subtotal function only refers to "visible" cells.
