Hi,
I assume you have the month in column A and the figures in column B from row
1 to 1000 , then in C1 you enter i.e. December and in D1 you want the result
(134), in D1 enter

=sumproduct(--(C1=$A$1:$A$1000),$B$1:$B$1000)

change ranges to fit your needs

Presuming that this information starts in cell A1 try entering this formula:
=SUMIF(A1:B11,"December",B1:B11)

hope this helps
