Totaling VLookup
I am trying to get a total of items in a list by category using vlookup.
I have a list of 20 different transactions, there might be 8 of them that are one specific category and I want those to total. My current Vlookup formula is this: =(VLOOKUP($I3,$C$3:$E$15,2,FALSE)) and this gives me the first amount in my array, but I want it to give me a total of all amounts in my array with the specific category. |

Wrong function. Try this:
=SUMIF($C3:$C15,$I3,$D3:$D15) -- Best Regards, Luke M *Remember to click "yes" if this post helped you!* "jhillman" wrote: I am trying to get a total of items in a list by category using vlookup.

Try this instead:
=SUMIF($C$3:$C$15,$I3,$D$3:$D$15) Hope this helps.
