I use a two monitor system and will have MS Excel 2013 running on both. On one monitor I can select a range of numbers and the sum total will show in he status bar. When I select a cell in the workbook on my other monitor the sum total disappears. Is there a way to not have the sum total disappear?

We just switched to Excel 2013 and are having this same issue. Did you ever figure out a solution? thanks!
Hi cbw1991,
Yes, by running a separate instance of Excel. See the link in my reply to MJones732.
This is insane . . . I always thought the user/customer was right . . . . Several of us have addressed how this feature was VALUABLE to us !!! I deal with millions of dollars and am (or should I now say WAS) constantly using this feature. Thank you for making my job harder!!!
Can't believe you haven't put a patch for this issue
Our office just switched to 2013, and this among a few other reasons is why I absolutely HATE MS Office 2013. I work with money all day and this feature in 2010 was extremely useful for me, the fact that it was removed is just stupid.
