"Formula omits adjacent cells" Error.
I have started using Excel 2002 on a XP Pro system. I use
excel to chart stock values. With this ver of excel, the range of cells that are refereneing data from other cell ranges are taged with this error. An example would be in column "e" =sum(a10:a14)/15. Why does this happen, and what is the solution. I have used excel 97 for a long time without this error. The data result is correct, but why the error? Thanks. |

"Formula omits adjacent cells" Error.
Hi John
nothing to worry about. Excel is just getting 'smarter'. As the error message stated there are probably values in A9 and/or A16. As Excel recognizes this and is assuming a SUM function would include theses cells it tagges your formula. If you're annoyed by this feature, copen the listbox attached to this tag symbol, choose 'Options' and disable the error messages of your choice Frank John Prendergast wrote: I have started using Excel 2002 on a XP Pro system.
