VLOOKUP
lets say i have a range name ADDUP. it starts from A1 to B5.
example: colA | colB Row1 1 | $200 Row2 1 | $150 Row3 2 | $600 Row4 2 | $150 Row5 1 | $800 if i want to use VLOOKUP function to add up all the values in columnB which have 1 in columnA. and i want to do the same for values in colomnB which have 2 in columnA. Is it possible? and How do i go about doing it? I think i know how to use VLOOKUP but im not sure how to let it add up the values. =VLOOKUP(G1,ADDUP,2,FALSE). if i use this formula, it picks up the first value and displays it in the cell. but does not add up the values for all the 1s and 2s. Let me know if its possible. Thanks in Advance. -- help a friend help you |
VLOOKUP
=Sumif($A$1:$A$5,1,$B$1:$B$5)

VLOOKUP
You should be able to do this with a SUMIF function,something like
=SUMIF(A1:A5, 1, B1:B5) and =SUMIF(A1:A5, 2, B1:B5) to total the values in column B where the value in column A is 1 or 2 respectively. -- Hope this helps, MarkN "ernie" wrote: lets say i have a range name ADDUP. it starts from A1 to B5. example: colA | colB Row1 1 | $200 Row2 1 | $150 Row3 2 | $600 Row4 2 | $150 Row5 1 | $800 if i want to use VLOOKUP function to add up all the values in columnB which have 1 in columnA. and i want to do the same for values in colomnB which have 2 in columnA.
