Please advise which LO version you are using and your OS. This will help
us determine if the problem is a know issue with a specific version of
LO or with a particular OS.
For your problem, I was able to replicate the behavior in LO 3.4.4 and
try the following:
=sum(if(isnumber(b5),-b5,0),if(isnumber(c5),-c5,0),if(isnumber(d5),d5,0,if(isnumber(e5),e5,0))
Alternate
=sum(if(isnumber(d5),d5,0),if(isnumber(e5),e5,0))-sum(if(isnumber(b5),b5,0),if(isnumber(c5),c5,0))
I am validating that the data is actually a number (isnumber(cell) =
true) and using either the value in the cell if true or 0 if it is not a
number. Without redesigning your entire spreadsheet this may be the
simplest way to fix your problem.

Hello,
I use this formula in calc on a large forecast spreadsheet
=sum(e4+d5)-(b5+c5)
There has to be some cells with text but the text is not being ignored
When it gets to a row with text in a cell it shows #VALUE!
I have searched and =sum is supposed to fix this ??
Can you help.
Thank you
Toni
