I think I would get rid of those blank lines.

Then (with the data sorted by that column), use xl's built in
Data|Subtotals to get those values.

If you add extra rows of data, remove the subtotals, resort the data and reapply
the data|subtotals.

You may want to look at Data|pivottable, too.

I have a worksheet with $ values for different people. The data is sorted by
the name of the person, and I have inserted a blank line between each
person's values. Now I want to calculate the total value of the items for
each person in the blank line (e.g. XXX has values in F2:F11, YYY has values
in F13:F28).

I tried using the AutoSum feature, but I cannot work out how to modify the
code so it will work with a variable number of populated cells. I could
really use a hand here.

Thank you in advance for your help.
