Quickly Sum the Same Cell Across Worksheets

To sum across worksheets, you might select each sheet’s range with the mouse (very slow), or use Consolidate (faster). But this time I’ll show how to do it with a single SUM formula!

  • We can enter a single formula to make Excel sum the same cell across different worksheets — so what is that formula?
  • For example, if we need to sum B2 from Jan, Feb, Mar and Apr and put the result into the B2 cell for months Jan–Apr, the formula is:
=SUM('*'!B2)
  • After pressing Enter, Excel will automatically expand the worksheet-name portion of the formula into Jan through Apr — amazing, right?!
