We have just migrated to Office XP and are experiencing problems (again). A user has created a check register in Word.

When the columns are totaled, using =sum(ABOVE), the column is totaled incorrectly. If the actual cell numbers are specified (i.e. =sum(a2:a7) then the column is totaled correctly.

This seems to be happening only in columns that have headings.

Any suggestions on how to work around this would be greatly appreciated since the user does not want to modify several Word documents.

Thanks in advance for your assistance.



Jay
