the list, assuming there are no blabnk rows

Choose Data Pivot Table
Choose Next
Choose Next
Choose Layout button if in older version of Excel
Drag ID to row area
Drag hours to data
Choose OK
Decide on Location and choose finish

Here is my delima

In column one, a person can input their ID number. In Column two, they
input hours of work.
Now there are multiple employees using the same sheet. What I want to
do is create a formula that adds all the values in column two that
correspond with each id number.

In other words, I want to make a formula that groups all the values
from the same ID number and adds them up.

Eventually I want to make a list that summarizes by employee id their
total hours worked.

Any sugguestions?
