Adding more then one horizontal row at a time

Question

How do I add multiple horizontal rows in Numbers?

Answer 1

Hi Whixen,
OK, different question, but still not quite clear.
Do you want individual sums for each row, one sum for all of the cells in a block, or both of these? Here's a sample of each:
The formulas in E2 and E5 are shown in column F. Both were created using the steps below.:
E2:
Enter =sum(
Click on B2 and drag to include C2 and D2 in the selection.
Release the mouse button, then press return or click the green Accept button on the function editor.
Numbers will supply the capitalization and the closing parenthesis.
E5:
Enter =sum(
Click on B2 and drag to D4 to add all intervening cells to the selection.
Release the mouse button, then press return or click the green Accept button on the function editor.
Numbers will supply the capitalization and the closing parenthesis.
The formulas in E3 and E4 are copies of the one in E2. They were added by filling the formula in E2 down to E4:
Select E2.
Place the mouse pointer on the Fill Control handle,
When the mouse pointer changed to a black + sign, click and drag the Fill handle down to include E3 and E4 in the selection rectangle.
The Fill Handle is the small circle at the bottom right corner of the selection. You can see an example in E5 in the image above.
