    Complicated Sumif or Index Problem - need a pure genius for us

    Hi, all
    Straight to the problem.
    To give you some background, We will work on this within a single workbook (no pulling from other workbooks). There are about 13 worksheets(tabs). First one is a roll-up sheet and second thru last one is by monthly data( 1-12).
    From the 2nd tab to the last tab, formats are same, the dollar values that I need to pull from are in the same column (column O).
    In every worksheets, there are list of three letter code such as LDD and LAI to distinguish different names in column B).
    Problem is they are duplicate of three digit codes with different dollar value.
    Ex)
    Column B Column O
    LDD ----------$200
    LDD ----------$340
    LAI -----------$100
    The duplicate codes are bind together like above. Not like
    LDD
    LAI
    LDD

    So this is what I want to acheive.
    I want to find the dollar value of the relevant code from each tab and get a sum of the value in my roll up tab, very first tab.
    So I could be pulling 2 LDD dollar value from tab2 and 4 LDD dollar value from tab3, 1 LDD dollar value from tab4 and etc...
    I was using Index Match but it limites to pick only one excluding duplicate code named values.
    Also, I tried sumifs to pull data and made it almost all manual work.. (no point at this time).
    If anyone could help, I'd greatly appreciate it!

    Let me know if you have any questions,
    Thank you in advance.

    Re: Very complicated project - need a pure genius for us

    You could have a summary table within each sheet where you list the 3-letter codes and use SUMIF (on that sheet only) to add the multiple values together. If this table is always in the same place on your 12 sheets (e.g. columns X and Y) and always list the codes in the same order, then it will be quite easy to produce an overall total on the summary sheet, as you can use:

    =SUM(Sheet2:Sheet12!Y1)

    to get all the values from cell Y1 in the 12 sheets.

    Hope this helps.

    Re: Very complicated project - need a pure genius for us

    That's a good idea, too
    But there are too many three letter names in each tab that it will take me too much time to create a seperate summary table.
    I'm trying to find a formula that could save me some time.
    Thank you for your help tho.

    Re: CHALLENGE YOURSELF! - need a pure genius for us

    See if this will work for you. I Tried attaching a workbook, but site is acting funny right now.

    Create a named range listing all the sheets you want to use. I used sheet.

    Then a formula like this in cell B1 and drag down will work.
