    Hi,

    Given I have a worksheet that contains a cell with a fomula like this:

    =SUM(B3:B$8)

    which defines a sum to a range that ends in a “relative column, absolute row” cell reference.

    When I add a new row on top, let’s say in row A, the formula is incorrectly updated to the following value:

    =SUM(B4:R0C)

    Not sure what is that R0C, is that a bug?

    It also happens if you use “absolute column, relative row” cell reference (Sample5 in attachment).

    I am providing a sample project that I was using for testing as an attachment.

    I’m using Documents for Excel (.net) v3.0.1.

    Thanks,

    Fernando

    Hello,

    This issue has been fixed in 3.1.5 builds, please update the builds to get the correct formula after adding a range.
