Is there a way I can add totals in worksheet?

I have eight worksheets in a workbook. The worksheets contains columns of
numbers with a total at the bottom of each column. Is there a way I can add
another worksheet that will add all of the totals of the other eight
worksheets? When the total of any of the eight worksheets change, will the
total change in the new worksheet? I am new to Excel and will appreciate
any help you can give me.

The most efficient way would be to put the total in the same cell on each
worksheet and use
=sum(firstsheet:lastsheet!thatcell)

Hi Starlin

Yes.

Add your new worksheet.

In the desired cell input:

=SUM(Sheet1!totalcell,Sheet2!totalcell,...Sheet8!totalcell)

where totalcell is the address of the total on each worksheet. Your
Grand Total will change when any cell on the other eight is updated.
