    VLookup with multiple return cells - Can I sum these up?

    Project + Timesheet - Sample.xlsxAttachment 252659Hi!

    I think there might be an easy way to do this, but it's been a while since I took an Excel course and I'm stumped.

    I have two tabs on a spreadsheet, one has a list of project numbers, and I need to add a row for how many hours were worked on each project. The timesheet is the next tab, and there are multiple entries for each job number. I've attached a sample spreadsheet, and here's a list of what I'd like to do:

    1) Vlookup in A2 on "NonProjects" tab for the "Job Number" on the "Timesheet" tab.
    2) The job numbers found on "Timesheet" will each have multiple entries; the total amount of time is in column F and is formatted to show 1.40 (one hour, 40 minutes).
    3) I want to sum up all of the time for each job number and return that total to column B on "NonProjects" tab.

    Any suggestions??

    Thanks very much!Attachment 252657

    With an pivot table.

    See the attached file.
    Notice my main language is not English.

    I appreciate it, if you reply on my solution.

    Ah sorry, should have mentioned, on the actual spreadsheet there's job numbers on the 'Timesheet' tab that will not be on the 'NonProject' tab.

    There's also almost 4,000 rows on the 'Timesheet' tab.

    I don't get the point.

    Put the desired result in your sheet and post it again.

    I've put several desired results on the "NonProject" tab in yellow.
