Cat. No. Cost per
M 20 $2.00 W 10 $1.00 M/W 5 $1.00 M 20 $2.00 based on the matrix above i need a formula to compute the following: 1) search down column 1 for a "M" in the cell/word then total the quantity in the corresponding row. (for this example "M" would add up to 45, "W" would be 15). 2) then i need it to be able to total the cost spent for each category (for this example "M" would be 20*$2+5*$1+20*$2). |

Try this...
=SUMIF(A2:A5,"*M*",B2:B5) Better to use a cell to hold the criteria... E2 = M =SUMIF(A2:A5,"*"&E2&"*",B2:B5) -- Biff Microsoft Excel MVP "r2rcode" wrote in message ... Cat.

thanks. and what formula will do part 2) of my question where it multiplies
the qty by the cost per and then sums up all the products for a certain category. "T. Valko" wrote: Try this... =SUMIF(A2:A5,"*M*",B2:B5) Better to use a cell to hold the criteria...

Ooops! I don't know how I missed that part. Try this... E2 = M =SUMPRODUCT(--(ISNUMBER(SEARCH(E2,A2:A5))),B2:B5,C2:C5) -- Biff Microsoft Excel MVP "r2rcode" wrote in message ... thanks. and what formula will do part 2) of my question where it multiplies the qty by the cost per and then sums up all the products for a certain category.
