Brian. Thanks
Gee I wish it was that simple.
I reduced the font size from 10 to 6 changed the font style and increased the column with to the
rest of the page. While I do not get ### any longer, I now see the formula =SUM(A1:A2). What is
also interesting is on the format cells menu, in the box on the lower right I see the correct
result. I am doing this on a blank sheet with single digits like adding 1 and 2 to get the result
of 3. I feel pretty dumb in not getting the result.
Thanks
Dave

I take two cells, create a formula in a third cell and the calculation results in a ###.
As you can see from the help text (under "### error message"), this means "The cell is not wide
enough to display the contents." You need either to
o (simplest) increase the column width, or
o reduce the font size, or
o possibly modify the cell formatting so that the displayed result is narrow enough to fit.
Remember that the result that is too large to be displayed may itself be an error message.
Went to the Frugal Computer guy to review but did not discover anything glaring wrong in what I
was doing.
Sack him and find a better computer guy(/gal).
I trust this helps.
