------- Additional comments from [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sat Oct 29 14:36:32 -0700 2005 ------- When I use the Offset() function inside a SUM() function, it results in an error message. I have many Excel97 spreadsheets using the offset function, generally inside another function. Used in an IF() function, it seems to work okay. But when I loaded an Excel97 sheet with the formula =-SUM(H$6:OFFSET(H147;-1;0)) in E147 Yesterday it gave me an "Error 508" message in that and all dependent cells. Today, the same formula in the same place gave me an "#N/A" error message. I use this type of formula so that I can move its row anywhere I want it in the table and it will always sum all rows above it. Anyway, I guess this exposes two problems: 1. Why is OFFSET() not working inside SUM() the same way it works inside IF()? 2. Why does it produce one error one day, and a different error the next day (in the same cell of the same UNEDITED spreadsheet)? --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
