Conditional formatting continues to haunt me!

I want to highlight a cell (G2) if it meets two criteria:

It (G2) has a value of zero
AND
the sum of columns D2,E2 and F2 is greater than zero

I have used the formula:

=AND((G2=0),SUM(D2:F2>0))

but this does not work!

Any ideas to solve this simple but annoying problem? Thanks.
 

Excel Facts

What is =ROMAN(40) in Excel?
The Roman numeral for 40 is XL. Bill "MrExcel" Jelen's 40th book was called MrExcel XL.
Don't really need the () around the 1st part...
=AND((G2=0),SUM(D2:F2)>0)
could be just
=AND(G2=0,SUM(D2:F2)>0)
