SUBTOTAL

Returns a subtotal in a list or database. It is generally easier to create a list with subtotals using the Subtotals command (Data menu). Once the subtotal list is created, you can modify it by editing the SUBTOTAL function.

Syntax

SUBTOTAL(function_num,ref1,ref2, …)

Function_num   is the number 1 to 11 that specifies which function to use in calculating subtotals within a list.

Function_Num	Function
1	AVERAGE
2	COUNT
3	COUNTA
4	MAX
5	MIN
6	PRODUCT
7	STDEV
8	STDEVP
9	SUM
10	VAR
11	VARP

Ref1,ref2, …   are 1 to 29 ranges or references for which you want the subtotal.

Remarks

• If there are other subtotals within ref1,ref2, … (or nested subtotals), these nested subtotals are ignored to avoid double counting.
• SUBTOTAL will ignore any hidden rows that result from a list being filtered. This is important when you want to subtotal only the visible data that results from a list that you have filtered.
• If any of the references are 3-D references, SUBTOTAL returns the #VALUE! error value.

Example

SUBTOTAL(9,C3:C5) will generate a subtotal of the cells C3:C5 using the SUM function
