How do I sum up the last two characters of a cell?

SuzanneH

I have a column where the last two characters are a number. If I do

Value(right(cell,2)

I get the correct number. I can also add Value(right(cell1,2) +Value(right(cell2,2)

But I would like to calculate a cell to be the sum of the right two characters in a column in another sheet. How do I do that?

Hi Suzanne,

I'd recommend using a so-called helper column in the main sheet and then sum or get that number to the other sheet.

Would that work?

I hope that helps!
