Adding some list items
Hello, I have an easy one here that I cannot seem to figure out. I have a
simple list A:A = Vendor B:B = Amount C:C = Category (from dropdown list) What is the formula to get the sum of only the items in a specific category? E2 to E9 is the list of the categories. I tried =SUMIF(B:B,$E$2=C2) and it comes back as zero when B2=1000 and E2 and C2 are the same. Please help. |

Adding some list items
The syntax of SUMIF is =SUMIF(criteria_range, criteria, sum_range)
The last argument is not needed if the same as the first - this is not your case We need to sum the B values for all records having C values equal to E2 =SUMIF(C:C, E2, B:B) best wishes -- Bernard Liengme Microsoft Excel MVP http://people.stfx.ca/bliengme "Jeremy" <jeremiah.a.reynolds @ gmail.com wrote in message ...
