Since you chose to broadcast this to the masses, it is perhaps worth
saying that it is somewhat amusing overkill.
o Why not =SUM(A1)+SUM(B1) or =SUM(SUM(A1+B1))?
o Would you multiply using =PRODUCT(A1*B1) or =SUM(PRODUCT(A1*B1))?
(All of these work!)
=SUM(A1+B1) adds the two values together - using the "+" operator -
and then passes the result to the SUM() function to add it to - oh,
er, nothing else.
No: instead, only EITHER
=A1+B1
OR
=SUM(A1,B1)
makes sense.
