I have a column of data separated with a space. Each space represents
a new day.

2
3
9 14

4
4 8

5
6
7
7 25

4
19 23


Is there a formula I can put along side in column b that will total
each day's results and show it like I've done above?

Thanks

This works but it requires the cell immediately above your data be empty.

This also assumes that the next cell after the last entry in the range is
empty.

So, assume cell A1 is empty and your data starts in cell A2.

Enter this formula in B2 and copy down as needed:

=IF(A3="",SUM(A2:INDEX(A$1:A1,LOOKUP(2,1/(A$1:A1=""),ROW(A$1:A1)))),"")

Here's a screencap:

This works with the data starting in row 1

=IF(A2="",SUM($A1:INDEX($A$1:A1,MAX(1,MAX(IF($A$1: A1="",ROW($A$1:A1)))))),"")

this is an array formula, so Ctrl-Shift-Enter, not just Enter.

I should have mentioned that this formula starts in row 2.

Actually, I had to put it into row one to make it work. Thanks a lot.
Much appreciated.
