I ran into this problem today. If i use this formula if one of the cells is empty or has a word in it. It returns nothing, but if i add a 0 in one of the empty cells or one that has a word in it. Then it returns the sum no problem.
It wont return if one cell is empty basically. I have to add a 0 in it to work. I need a work around formula in anyone can help thanks.

=IFERROR(Sheet1!N3+Sheet1!U3,0)
 

Excel Facts

What is the fastest way to copy a formula?
If A2:A50000 contain data. Enter a formula in B2. Select B2. Double-click the Fill Handle and Excel will shoot the formula down to B50000.
How about
Excel Formula:
=sum(Sheet1!N3,Sheet1!U3,0)
