I already know how to sum a *range* of cells.
Click, drag, release, and then click on the Sigma
icon.
That sums up a range of cells.
I want to sum up the whole column. The *entire*
column.
I don't want to have some silly formula like "sum
from one to billion".
Is there a formula for summing the entire column?

Try something like:

=sum(a:a)

to sum the entire column a.

Good luck.

have you tried
=sum(f:f)
I wouldn't put it in the 1st row of the column desired.
