    Need help trying to create Sumif expression in Access

    I am comfortable writing a sumif formula in excel, but am not as familiar with Access. I have a table that has a list of account numbers and a list of charges on the account. For instance, I have 10 records with the same account number, but different charges for each record. I need to figure out how to query the data so that I can produce a sum of charges for each account number. My excel formula would be, =sumif($C$2:$C$5000,C2,$W$2:$W$5000). I need to to translate that into the appropriate Access format. Any help would be much appreciated.

    Thanks!

    Hi delpiero,

    Using the query tool there is a Summation (Sigma or Totals) Icon that will allow a "Group" row to appear. It is pretty simple once you see it done. See
    http://www.fontstuff.com/access/acctut04.htm
    for an example.

    The idea is you group by the Account Number and Sum the Charges. Easy Peasy - only if you can find that Summation feature in queries.
    One test is worth a thousand opinions.
