Excel addition formula results in 0

Copper Contributor

I have a summary worksheet showing currency sums from other worksheets in the file.

When I try to do addition of various cells such as:   =E51+M51+P51 the result shows as a 0

Each of those cells shows a positive number that is not zero

The row above uses the same formula =E50+M50+P51 and shows a proper sum

This seems to be a recent problem 

I have run error check and do not seem to be able to find any problems in my formulas or data

any ideas?

Make sure that E51, M51 and P51 are real numbers and not text values that look like numbers.
