Default Formula please

Glad you got it working. Note that Roger's formula will work as well (and
probably more efficient), but he has a small typo. Should be
=SUMPRODUCT((A1:A8={"A","B","C","D","E","F","G","H "})*(D32:K32))

Note that I removed the UPPER function, as its not really needed.

Hi Luke,
Sorry I forgot to change the formula to incue the blank cell after I added
it! Thank you so much, works perfectly!

Note that this refers to C32 (and c32 needs to be blank) in order to handle
the empty cells.

=LOOKUP(A1,{0,"a","b","c","d","e","f","g","h"},C32 :K32)+LOOKUP(A2,{0,"a","b","c","d","e","f","g","h" },C32:K32)+LOOKUP(A3,{0,"a","b","c","d","e","f","g ","h"},C32:K32)+LOOKUP(A4,{0,"a","b","c","d","e"," f","g","h"},C32:K32)+LOOKUP(A5,{0,"a","b","c","d", "e","f","g","h"},C32:K32)+LOOKUP(A6,{0,"a","b","c" ,"d","e","f","g","h"},C32:K32)+LOOKUP(A7,{0,"a","b ","c","d","e","f","g","h"},C32:K32)

I am trying, and failing, to put together a formula to reach the following
(in the most simplist way I can explain):

If cells A1 and/or A2 and/or A3 and/or A4....A7 contain the letter:
"A" then = cell D32 +
"B" then = cell E32 +
"C" then = cell F32... through to "H"=K32

So essentually if only "B", "D" and "F" were keyed in to A2, A4, A5 (in any
order and only one letter per cell), the sum total would be calculated as
D32+G32+I32.

Is anyone able to please advise? Much appriciated
