Default sum results based on a reference

In C1, enter this formula and drag it down. HTH Otto

=SUMIF($A$1:$A$5,A1,$B$1:$B$5)

...
I have column A with several repeating references (e.g: 1, 2,
3,4,3,2,4,5,2,
etc), I need to be able to sum the values in column B that match the
specific
reference.
e.g.:
A B
1 25
2 14
3 18
1 20
3 25

Therefore, if I am looking at sum of all values referred from "1", my
total
is 45 (25+20).
Can someone help? my columns A and B can go to hundreds of rows, and no
more
than 30 to 50 references.

thank you,

Mauro
