| In the sample above, the Sale amounts for
Charlotte Web have been selected. The result of the
sum of
the selected cells (1400) is displayed in the
Status Bar. It is not
necessary to select the cells containing text (i.e., Web and
Charlotte) as Excel ignores the cells with text, but often it is
easier to identify numeric values.
Right-mouse clicking on the
Status Bar will open a short-cut menu where a different function can be
selected to calculate.
