Good day. I have a sheet used to track scores on an assessment. I have limited the possible cell entries (using the validation function) to either full points awarded, zero points awarded, or NA. I would like to be able to sum all the cells that have either full points or zero points, BUT for the cells with zero points awarded, I would need the value counted to be what the full points awarded would have been (if they hadn't gotten a zero). Basically, I am trying to get the total points possible (minus any NA's). I will try to draw an example.<BR><BR>
