Hi, we have a problem with some @sum formulas etc. They are returning with zero :( if anyone can help (even by asking me for more info about the problem first) then I'd appreciate it.. thankies! :)

 
Ok I have some background on the files in question.

After opening a few notebook files with several sheets full of information, sums etc, the user had a crash and received the CARM window - continued through it and continued to work in the program.

The cells containing formulas (some not all) began to say "Not yet, bret". After a search online I found information explaining that the calculation should be re-entered.

Following this, a day after it was solved, some began to show up as "Evaluator Stack Error" Retyping them first solved it but @sums began to calculate as 0. Now every time a @sum is placed into any cell in any notebook, new or existing, they calculate it as 0.

Now also on top of this whenever the user types into a cell with a number and a suffix (eg. 16th) it gives a message "Invalid reference. For formula: block names, cell references, and operators must be correct. For Label: it should start with a label prefix character."

Any Ideas? I know I'm not sure about what it is :)

hehe
