Default Sorting & Combining Rows

I am trying to figure out how I can sort these rows and then combine the like
rows. Obviously, I am not describing it well, but this is what I want:

Start with:

Column (A) Qty per system; (B) # of Systems; (C) Total Qty (D) Part #; (E)
Part Description

1 2 2 W0000 Widgets
1 3 3 G0000 Gidgets
1 4 4 D0000 Didgets
1 2 2 W0000 Widgets
1 2 2 W0000 Widgets
1 3 3 G0000 Gidgets
1 4 4 D0000 Didgets
1 2 2 W0000 Widgets

I can sort and end up with:

1 2 2 W0000 Widgets
1 2 2 W0000 Widgets
1 2 2 W0000 Widgets
1 2 2 W0000 Widgets
1 3 3 G0000 Gidgets
1 3 3 G0000 Gidgets
1 4 4 D0000 Didgets
1 4 4 D0000 Didgets


What I want to do is combine the like part numbers; add the qtys and end up
with this:
A B C D E
1 2 8 W0000 Widgets
1 3 6 G0000 Gidgets
1 4 8 D0000 Didgets

The only number I am really concerned about combining is the total qty. (C)
The rest is irrelevant. Is this do-able? If so, I would sure appreciate a
detailed method of getting this done. Please keep in mind that I am
relatively new to Excel. Thank you in advance.
