SUM using names

You can use the names typed at the top of columns or side of rows in calculations simply by typing the name into the formula.

Try this example:
Go to cell C16 and then enter the formula =SUM(jan)
The result will show.
This formula can be copied to D16 and E16, and the names change to Feb and Mar.

I would request you to post here in the comment section.
