excell 2007 does not do a total sum since I downloaded the vista ultimate, at first I had the vista home premium and the office 2007 worked well with it, but with the ultimate version I"m having troubles with the ecxell formulas, mainly the total sum?What can i do?

??? I have Vista 64-bit with Office 2007. I just highlight the column and select the Sigma symbol. It gives me a total sum (e.g., =SUM(C6:C8) ).

Do you see the autosum symbol? If yes, what happens when you highlight the cells and click the symbol?

I've tried to use the symbol and highlight the column, but it does a wrong sum, most of the times giving zero as a result!I don't understand what happens and don't know what to do!

most of times it comes a zero as a response or it comes a wrong number!
