Do not know if it will work in your application but have you looked at the 
SUMPRODUCT() function? This can be used to calculate the totals of a number of 
arrays or ranges but it is again limited to the 30 argument maximum.

Further, have you tried using brackets to 'fool' the SUM() finction? Again, I 
do not know if it would work but you could try;

SUM((A1 + B1 + C1), (D1 + E1), (F1 + G1)) etc.......

Have not tried this so I expect Excel will simply swear at you but it would be 
easy enough to test.

Just ran into an error yesterday telling me that the sum function can 
only support 30 arguments. I am trying to calculate the Grand Total of 
several sub totals, so doing this as a range is not effective. Does 
anyone know a work around for this?

thanks
