I am working on a project and trying to figure out a formula. What I want to
have happen is in the A column I have different project codes and in the H
column I have the cost of the task. I would like to have a formula that will
find a specific code in column A and then add the amounts in column H so I
would have a total sum.

Thanks!

Hi Christina,

<and then add the amounts in column H

Add to what?

Did you look at VLOOKUP()?

For example:
Code Date Ticket Description Equiptment Total

105 1/2/2008 55 Check grade Labor $87.50
104 1/2/2008 307 Level stockpile site 972 $225.00
108 1/3/2008 56 Exc center hole Bobcat_MiniEx $85.50
104 12/20/2007303 Level stockpile site 972 $225.00

What I need to do is say for instance "how much in total was spent for code
104"?
I need a formula that will search code 104 in the CODE column and then add
together the total amount that was spent. Which would give an answer of $450

With the codes in A and the Totals in E:

=SUMIF(A1:A4,104,E1:E4)

Of course the 4 could be much higher (the row number)

You could also look at DataSubtotals to see all the details and all the totals in one report
