I'm trying to sum up a range that is selected using an offset variable...tried this:

ActiveCell.Value = Application.WorksheetFunction.Sum(ActiveCell.Offset(0, -ColCalcNum).Address & ":" & ActiveCell.Offset(0, -1).Address)

Can't quite get the correct Syntax for this, or for the "Activecell.Formula = ..." method. Any suggestions?
 

Excel Facts

Shade all formula cells
To shade all formula cells: Home, Find & Select, Formulas to select all formulas. Then apply a light fill color.
The help file is incorrect
You will need to use an object range for this

eg
<pre/>
Dim MyRg as Range

Set MyRg = Range(ActiveCell.Offset(0, -ColCalcNum).Address & ":" & ActiveCell.Offset(0, -1).Address)
ActiveCell.Value = Application.WorksheetFunction.Sum(MyRg)
MsgBox ActiveCell.Value

</pre>
