A possible explanation is that you are typing the pound sign in yourself. If the cell content is left aligned, then it is being treated like text and so it cannot be summed. That is what happens if you type the pound sign in yourself. It thinks it is text, not a number. You should only ever type in actual numbers and then use the formatting options to add in the pound sign or whatever other symbols you may want. So type the numbers in with no signs. They should align to the right of the cell. Then use formatting to apply the pound signs. The pound signs will appear but your values will still be treated as numbers and will still be right aligned. Now you should be able to sum them.
One of the first things I learned when I started to look into the field of personal finance was the rule of 72. It is a useful tool and one that can help you amaze and astound your friends. Say for example you had a sum of money and you wanted to double it in a given number of years. For example you want to set aside a certain sum for your daughter’s wedding in 10 years and you’d like to double the initial amount in that period of time. Simply divide the sum you’re setting aside for the occasion into 72, the result will be the interest rate you’ll have to earn to accomplish this goal. For example if you were to set aside $5,000 and hope to double it in 10 years, you’d have to earn 7.2% interest on it in order to see this dream become a reality. (72 / 10 = 7.2). The rule of 72 also works in reverse. Assume you had put that $5,000 in the highest yielding money market you could find. In this fund it was earning 4% interest. How long would it take you to double this sum? You can find out by dividing 72 by the interest rate. 72 / 4 = 18. At that rate of interest it’ll take 18 years to double your money. So, if your daughter was hoping to have double the fun at her wedding, she’d better postpone another eight years. From whence does this magical number come? The Rule of 72 is derived from natural logarithms. (Technically, it should be called the rule of 69.3, but that’s not nearly as easily divisible than 72. The difference between the two will cause negligible variances unless you’re using huge numbers. If you are using huge numbers, I suggest using a financial calculator or spreadsheet program to do your calculations.) The origin of the natural logarithm isn’t important. What is important is that the rule of 72 gives a quick and easy way to perform back of the envelope calculations regarding doubling your money. Of course there’s much much more to the topic of personal financial planning but the rule of 72 can be a fun way to enter this sometimes daunting world by allowing you to do some quick calculations, or at least be the star of your next party.
If you are getting ready to go to college, you are probably more than a little bit nervous about how you will fund your education. College is expensive, and savings accounts and saving bonds often aren't enough to cover the tuition and expenses. Although working while you are in school can help you to get by, it is difficult to maintain good grades while working a lot, and you might still have financial troubles. Therefore, it is important to fill out a FAFSA worksheet in an effort to get a little bit of help with college.
By filling out a FAFSA worksheet, you could end up with a federal Pell Grant, which will pay for your tuition. You don't have to pay these grants back, and the funds are typically enough to cover community college expenses. You might have to supplement the money if you are going to a university, but it will be helpful to have this financial assistance.
Even if you do not qualify for a Pell Grant, you might qualify for a private loan. A private loan through the government typically has a much better interest rate than a loan that you acquire through a private lender, and they are much more flexible about giving out these loans.
How Can You Make Filling Out a FAFSA Worksheet Easier?If you have never filled out a FAFSA worksheet before, you might feel a bit overwhelmed by all of the information that it asks you to provide. However, these worksheets really aren't that difficult to fill out, and you shouldn't have a problem if you prepare all of your documents before filling out the form.
One good idea is to print out your FAFSA worksheet. Although it is quicker and easier to fill out your form online, printing out the worksheet makes it easy for you to remember all of the documents that you will need to gather before filling out the form.
You will need a copy of your tax return, and you might need a copy of your parents' tax return as well. You will also need other information about your income and expenses, so make sure to take a look at the form in order to gather the necessary materials.

If you mean who created or invented the electronic spreadsheet then the answer is the business student named Dan Bricklin and his friend, a programmer named Bob Frankston. They invented Visicalc which was the first Spreadsheet program in 1978.
When you select cells, their colour changes to show that they have been selected, and that is often referred to as a highlight. So you could say that highlighted cells are selected cells.
