SUMIF and text
I am looking for a way to use the SUMIF function on text. I have a sheet with
several different words in A column and different values in the B column. For instance would I like to get SUMIF to return the value in B were the word BAKER is in column A. But I would also like it to return the value for the word BAKER 2 and BAKER 3 in the same cell (All vaues starting with BAKER). Is it possible to make a formula with SUMIF that returns for instance alle values where the text starts with BAKER? |

You can use wildcards with SUMIF, like this:
=SUMIF(A:A,"BAKER*",B:B) Hope this helps. Pete On Feb 4, 5:34*pm, Silja wrote: I am looking for a way to use the SUMIF function on text.
