Adding muliple cells.
How do I write a formula that will add all the sales for an individual,
return the name in one cell and the total sales in another and list them by highest dollar sold descending? Example of what I will enter into Excel: Jim $100.00 Jim $126.78 Jim $153.56 Rose $180.34 Rose $207.12 Rose $233.90 Rose $260.68 Rose $287.46 Bill $314.24 Bill $341.02 Bill $367.80 Bill $394.58 Bob $421.36 Bob $448.14 Bob $474.92 Bob $501.70 Bob $528.48 Bob $555.26 This is what I would like the results to look like: Bob $2,929.86 Bill $1,417.64 Rose $1,169.50 Jim $380.34 Thanks for your help. |

The best way to do this would be to use a pivot table.
Firstly give your columns heading, Employee and Sales then DataPivotTable and PivotChart Report Select your data as the range Click layout From the field on the right drag Employee to the left side of the table from the field on the right drag sales to the data (middle) part of the table. Click next Decide where you want the table, New Sheet or In An Existing Sheet Click finish. Everytime you add more data to the list you need to refresh the table, right click anywhere on the table and click refresh.
