where would the SUM icon be if it is not at the top of my screen?

[Guest]

Need to work an exercise where I click on the sum icon to add rows of figures
in a spread sheet and the sum icon is not at the top of the screen to click.
Why would
it go away? It was there last week when I was using the fx function. Would
that take it away?

Right click on any visible toolbar, click CUSTOMIZE in the drop-down menu and
in the dialog box that is displayed next, click the TOOLBARS tab. Select the
STANDARD toolbar from the list of available toolbars and click the RESET
button on left side of the tab page. Click OK to close.

If that doesn't work, click the last button on the toolbar to display the
toolbar display options and select 2 rows. The button may be hidden if the
toolbars are all displayed on the same row.

For a keyboard alternative.....

Select the cell(s) where you want the sums, then...
Hold down the [alt] key and press the [=] key.

That engages the autosums without clicking the tollbar button.

Does that help?
