If you want to type this in manually, note that the structure here is =SUM(Sheet 1 Name::Table Name::Cell Name,Sheet 2 Name::Table Name::Cell Name). When you’re done, click the green checkmark next to the formula box or press Return, and when you go back to the original sheet, you’ll see your finished calculation. If you’ve done it correctly, the formula will stay active while you’re clicking around, and the cells you’re adding will appear in the box as they are above for me. Once you’re ready to fill in the correct information, make sure you’ve got the formula up and waiting with your cursor in it if necessary, then select your other sheets one at a time and click on the cells from those sheets you’d like to use.
If that’s the case for you, just click the cell again and delete out the offending data, leaving your cursor in the middle of the blank formula, like so: Now, in this case my Mac didn’t get smart and try to auto-sum anything, but if yours does, Numbers might just populate that cell with the references around it:
#NUMBERS FOR MAC HELP PLUS#
To do so, click on the cell where you want your formula to go, and then click the “Insert” button in the toolbar, which looks like a plus button with a box around it.Īs you can see above, you can then pick which formula you want I’m selecting “Sum,” which’ll put that equation right into my chosen cell.
Step one is to start creating the formula that’ll add up (or average, or what have you) the cells in question. That’s cool, and here’s how you’ll do it! In the case of my spreadsheet above, for example, I can take a number from my “Expenses” tab and one from my “Income” tab and use those to populate a summary cell under the “Budget” one. …then you can use a cell in one of those sheets to calculate values in the others.
