    Sumif Keyword

    Hello, Im trying to do a sumif function. I have a bank statement loaded in excel and im trying to sumif keywords like walmart, target, subway, but it wont work since the bank statement has more than just the store name in the row it will say for example walmart sotre#xxxx transaction#xxxxx. So how do I add up transactions that are at a certain store or with a certain keyword if the row has multiple words within it other than whats being put into the sumif command? I hope this question is clear I know its probably a little confusion thanks!

    Re: Sumif Keyword

    wow you have Sheetz there? impressive lol

    OK try this...
    =SUMIF($E$2:$E$23,"*"&"sheetz"&"*",B2:B23)

    That will give you the basic concept of what you need to do. You could put all the store names in a table, and reference them if you want to, replave the name in the formula with a cell ref

    Re: Sumif Keyword

    Awesome Thanks so much to both of you thats exactly what i needed! I wish I understood these functions better. One more question sometimes walmart appears as "WM-supercenter" and sometimes it appears at "WAL-MART" on my statement, is there anyway to make it add those up all together since it is two different keywords, im thinking maybe and "or" function i dunno just guessing
