Can you post the formula you're using?

Also...some things to check:
Make sure that the values in Col_A and Col_B
are numbers...NOT numeric text.

Examples:
123.....number
'123....numeric text

You can test individual values with a formula like this:
=ISNUMBER(A2)

If the values are numbers...this kind of formula should work for you:
=SUM(A2:B2)

If the values are numeric text....try this:
=SUMPRODUCT(--(A2:B2))

Does that help?
