    Lookup & Add Multiple Amounts

    I am using Excel 2003 (currently trying to get them to install 2010) and am trying to do a formula that will lookup a specific amount, then return the amount in another row. Basically the same as vlookup, except what I need it to do is find the amount more than once, and then give me the sum of the referenced amounts. Here is an example:

    QMC
    Nature Description Workpaper Reference M&E Per Books
    67100000 TRAVEL - MEALS A-1 65,464
    69100000 TICKETS/ENTERTAINMNT A-1 1,868
    67,332

    GMC - 01
    Nature Description Workpaper Reference M&E Per Books
    67100000 TRAVEL - MEALS A-1 302,758
    67103000 TRAVEL-MEALS A-1 15,098
    67104000 TRAVEL - MEALS A-1 95
    67150000 MEALS-DIST AUDIT/CLOSE OUT A-1 14,685
    69100000 TICKETS/ENTERTAINMNT A-1 169
    7105*0 MEALS AND ENTERTAINMENT A-1 67,761
    8405*0 MEALS&ENTERTAINMENT-ADMIN A-1 126,257
    526,823

    What I am trying to do is get the total of each account. So I'd like to do some type of lookup for account "67100000" and add the amounts from each one. So in this example it would be 65,464+302,758. I can get vlookup to search for one amount and return it, but is there any way to get all of the amounts? I'd like to do this for each of the accounts.

    If you need any other information I would be happy to provide it. Thanks for reading!

    Hi,

    Sounds like the SUMIF function will help with this.

    Cheers,
