Hi,
I've got two columns of data, column A contains the value and column B contains either 'Dr' or 'Cr'. I want to put a total at the bottom that shows the difference between the two, what is the best way to go about this? My spidee senses tell me it's SUMPRODUCT time but all solutions are gratefully received.
Thanks,
Snook

hi Snook, your spidey sense is correct~ you can use SUMPRODUCT:
=SUMPRODUCT((B1:B10="Dr")*(A1:A10))-SUMPRODUCT((B1:B10="Cr")*(A1:A10))
or SUMIF:
=SUMIF(B1:B10,"Dr",A1:A10)-SUMIF(B1:B10,"Cr",A1:A10)

Hi
SUMIF, i think is the best way.
=SUMIF(B1:B100,"Dr",A1:A100)-SUMIF(B1:B100,"Cr",A1:A100)
