    How to find multiple same date instances in a column & add associated values

    For example starting at A4 I have a column of dates, some of which are repeated randomly throughout the column. also starting at C4 I have a column with numbers in, related to each date.

    I would like to find each instance of the same date and add the corresponding values together, placing the cumulative value against the first instance of the date.

    Hope that makes sense.

    regards

    sounds like a sumif stmt would work. for example, you have in col A dates, you could take the list of dates and copy them to another empty column then use remove duplicates and get a short single list. Then using that list put in another column =sumif(A:A,[the cell with your first date value],C:C) that would give you a sum for all the specific dates in your list.

    This should do as you want.

    Adjust as necessary for the range of data that you have.

    The COUNTIF identifies if the entry in column A is the first time that entry has been encountered and if it is performs the SUMIF calculation. Subsequent encounters with the same date will result in a blank cell. This continues down the column for each new entry encountered by the COUNTIF.
