Default pivot tables?

Each person in my database (of over 1000) has two rows of information. I want
to combine two cells for each person so that there's just one entry per
person. Someone suggested a pivot table but I don't know how to do that!

There are instructions for pivot tables in Excel's Help, and Jon Peltier
has information and links:

Put the names in the Row area, and the values you want to sum in the
data area.
