Ok, you have to fix something, first!

I guess you want the totals in columns D,G,J,M,P,S and V on the Block (2)
sheet.

Those cells have been formatted as TEXT. You *MUST* change those to a
GENERAL format. You can't simply just change the format, either. Follow
these instructions EXACTLY:

On the Block sheet:

Select cell X1
Goto EditCopy
Select the range D7:D50
Hold down the CTRL key then select these other ranges:
G7:G50
J7:J50
M7:M50
P7:P50
S7:S50
V7:V50

Do not release the CTRL key until all ranges have been selected!!!

With all those ranges selected:

Goto EditPaste SpecialAddOK

That'll convert those cells to a GENERAL format. It'll mess up your borders,
but you can put those back in.

Now, enter this formula in D7:

=SUMIF(INDIRECT(B$5&"!A28:A46"),$A7,INDIRECT(B$5&" !D28:D46"))

Copy it to each of the other columns: G7,J7,M7,P7,S7 and V7.

Then you can copy each formula down its respective column as needed.

Biff
