Instead of subtotals, you could use a pivot table to summarize the data.
Jon Peltier has instructions and links on his web site:

Add Vendor number and Vendor name to the row area, and put the dollar
field into the data area, where it will become Sum of Dollars.

I have a spreadsheet and have used the subtotal (Data -- Subtotals). I have
chosen to subtotal dollar amount for a particular vendor number, however the
names of the vendors does not appear then. How can I get the name of the
vendor to appear as well?

Thanks,
