Hi Larry

just a note on Jim's comments - it's important to SORT by part number
before
using data / subtotals ...

an alternative approach is using Pivot Tables - Debra Dalgleish has some
good instructions on her website at www.contextures.com/tiptech.html

Cheers

Larry,

Another way is to use the subtotals feature
Go to the Data menu and click Subtotals, follow the directions.

I have a simple spreadsheet in the following format ...
Cell A1 with a heading Part Number, B1 heading Description and C1
heading
Quantity.
Under the headings is a list of 100 rows and a part number can appear
more
than once.
What I would like to do is take all the unique part numbers and put
them
into a separate list and then sum the totals for these part numbers.
Can anyone give me and idea how to do this please?
Many thanks.
Larry Wallis.




And thanx to you too Jim and Julie.
