Add headers to each column if you don't have them.
Then select columns A and B (and any other used column) Data|Sort (and sort by column A) Then Data|Subtotal Subtotal by each change in the description column halb1961 wrote: I have two colums. A description column and an amount column. How do I subtotal the descriptions? -- Dave Peterson |

One quick n easy way is to use/create a pivot table Select any cell in the table, click Data Pivot table .. Click Next Next. In step3, click Layout, then drag n drop the col label for description in ROW area drag n drop the col label for amount in DATA area click OK Finish, and you'd get the desired pivot results in a new sheet to the left -- Max Singapore http://savefile.com/projects/236895 xdemechanik --- |

And after you apply data|subtotals, you'll see outlining symbols to the left of
the worksheet. You can use those to hide/show details. Dave Peterson wrote: Add headers to each column if you don't have them.
