Bit of a complex SUM
Put this in column H next to "four" (assume this is H1):
=SUMIF(F:F,G1,A:A)
Copy down to H4.
Hope this helps.

Hi,
I've got a large worksheet doing a variety of calculations. One section of
the data looks like:
A * * .... * *F * * * *G * * * * * *H * * * *
6 * * * * * * one * * four * *
0 * * * * * * * * * * * one * *
25 * * * * * three * three
9 * * * * * * two * * two
4 * * * * * * one
0 * * * * * * *
Column A always contains a whole number or 0.
Column F contains one of a set of text values defined in column G. If Column
A is zero, Column F will be blank.
Column G is a list of possible values of Column F, sorted in alphabetical
order.
I have no way of knowing what values are in Column A, nor how many rows are
used (though I can set a high limit and unused rows will contain zero).
I have no way of knowing what value is in column F other than the limits
described above.
What I need to do is SUM the values in Column A according to the value in
Column F, so columns G and H would look like:
G * * * *H
four * *0
one * *10
three *25
two * *9
Help on the formula to do this would be much appreciated.
This is in XL 2003 if it makes any difference.
TIA
Dave
