The <> means not equal to in Excel.
I opened a spreadsheet made in Excel with this formula using <> and I
saw that it was not working properly.
And I started playing, your answers I tried already, it works, but I
need a way to say not equal to "X".
Another question;
In the same situation, how would you tel the formula to add all those
where the cell is empty? 

Thanx

Ryno --

Two problems:

1) The ranges, when I opened it were wrong, but that is probably
trivial.

2) As per the help file (I just pushed the help button in the formula
wizard dialog) the enter criteria needs to be in quotes.

I am not sure what <> means, but if you are trying to say if that
criteria equal G then you would put:

=SUMIF(G7:G17;"=G";F7:F17)

Or, just modifying yours, (which gave me 0)

=SUMIF(G7:G17;"<>G";F7:F17)

HTH, and remember that the in product help is usually pretty helpful.
