I am posting this for a netless friend because I can't believe it.
When using Symphony (a spreadsheet calculation programm) and 
accumulating over a range of columns by adding them from seperate
spreadsheets to be combined into accumulated sums s1 .. sn in one sheet
using ONE command to specify all the sums it happens that

      s1  s2  s3 ... 

SOMETIMES(!) s2 is ARITHMETICALLY INCORRECT. Has anyone an explanation
for that, could it be an unreliable disk drive?? I have witnessed
it, it is not a human error when entering the command sequence.
Hardware is an ACER clone.
Any help much appreciated, thanks!
