Since your dates appear to be in order, I would suggest
that you use Subtotals in the Data menu.
Insert a title row above your data i.e. Date Amount
Select all cells Ctrl+A
(in Excel 2003 you had best use Ctrl+Shift+Spacebar)
Data, Subtotals
At each change in: Date
Use function: Sum
add subtotal to: Amount
Click on button [2] to see the total for each date
If you want to get fancy you can change coloration by
first reducing selection to the visible cells and then formatting
as desired.
Ctrl+(semi-colon) (button has 4 black rectangles inside)
use the Fill Color button (button is a paint can)
To eliminate all use of Subtotals
data, subtotals, remove all

hi there,
I need a solution for excel.
Sheet1. This worksheet excists of a column DATE where a user can fill in
dates. These dates are of the format: dd/mm/yyyy .
And a column AMOUNT. Where a user can fill in an amount.
This amount is of the format: number, decimal 2
for example:
05/07/2005 | 15,30
12/07/2005 | 34,80
12/07/2005 | 8,50
12/07/2005 | 12,90
20/07/2005 | 5,00
20/07/2005 | 7,50
24/07/2005 | 100,60
What I want to accomplish is the following.
Excel has to make a SOM from the amounts per date. and list these SOMs on
sheet2.
in the format:
05/07/2005 | 15,30
12/07/2005 | 56,20
20/07/2005 | 12,50
24/07/2005 | 100,60
Can excel do this?
