i have two columns in excel the first column contains some cells with Y
(for
yes) in them and N (for no) the second column contains a financial amount
i.e. £5.00 next to each letter (Y or N)

i want to create a cmd button which contains an 'if' statement to sum all
the financial cells where the cells next to it contains "Y"

i.e.

column 1 Column 2
y £5
y £5
n £5

sum = £10.00
