    Hi!
    I'd like to use =sum(above) but I discovered
    that if one of the cell above is blank, the formulae
    doesn't work, and I have to insert zero b4 it do.
    Anyway to make it works w/o inserting zero?
    Thanks!!

    Create an extra small column, and merge the 2 cells at the bottom, like this:
    +-----------------+--+-------+
    | item 1 | | 100 |
    +-----------------+--+-------+
    | item 2 | | |
    +-----------------+--+-------+
    | item 3 | | 200 |
    +-----------------+--+-------+
    | Total | 300 | <- =SUM(C:C)
    +-----------------+----------+
