Default Vlookup

See if this is what you had in mind...

...........A..........B
1........x...........3
2........z...........4
3........x...........1
4........x...........4
5........y...........2

Sum column B where column A = x:

=SUMIF(A1:A5,"x",B1:B5)

Can I send you a sample of the file and show you what I'm trying to
accomplish? There is too much to be able to explain here and I think an
actual illustration might help.

Thanks!

How do I know you won't send me a nasty virus?

What you could do is use any of several free file hosting sites. You'd
upload your file to the file host site then post a link to that file. Anyone
interested could then download the file to look at it.

I don't have a problem doing that at all. I certainly understand your
concern. Thank you!

Do you know of one that I could use? Because this is a company computer, I'm
not able to go to all websites. It's blocked due to security reasons. If
you don't know of one I can use, then I'll try and post here, but it's
difficult to add everything I need here to give you a good idea of what I'm
doing.

Thanks again!
