Try
=SUMIF(B5:B47,"="&E5, C5:C47)

or
=SUMPRODUCT(--(B5:B47=E5),C5:C47)

It seems like such a simple question. Range B5:C47 is a list of dates (in
order, but some repeating) and a list of dollar amounts (deposits made on
that day). I want to add up all the deposits on a given date. In column E
I
have a list of dates, in column F I want the sum of the corresponding
date.
So for example, in E5 I have the first date. In F5 I have this (which
returns an error): SUMIF(B5:B47,"=E5", C5:C47). I want to return the sum
of
all deposits on the date in cell E5.
