Abstract
Some “summary” information in a cell named range is preserved when some spreadsheet elements rows, columns, or pages are added or removed from the cell named range. A range summary cell is defined by specifying in a table a range summary cell address. A range summary cell address is updated in the table according to the updated cell range address, and the range summary cell is moved according to the updated range summary cell address. The cell range address is updated in the table after the addition or the deletion of the spreadsheet element, and the range summary cell address is updated in the table according to the updated cell range address.
