Sum Indirect not working

I have a spreadsheet that is divided into several sections and I need each section to be totaled separately. I am using =SUM(INDIRECT("E$22:E"&ROW()-1)) to have to rows automatically include any new rows that I add the problem I am having is when I do add a new row it changes the starting column number and throws off my calculation. So how do I get this to work or is there another way that I can get the results that I am looking for. I don't want to have to manually update the sum formula every time I add a new row.

    gloriaBRC802 Tested your formula. Should work. Either by inserting a row above the cell with the formula or by moving the formula down and inserting new values above it. Works all the time. Can you upload your schedule (delete confidential information) to demonstrate the problem?
