    Lookup text in target area and sum first number after matched cell

    Problem: Referencing the picture attached, I would like to sum up the first NUMBER (ignores text) that appears along the same row (up to max of 8 cells after the text) whenever the keyword in O2 appears in the bold box (B2:L21). In this scenario, the answer should be 3+5=8. Please help, thanks!

    Re: Help needed!

    Hi and welcome to the forum,

    Your post does not comply with Rule 1 of our Forum RULES. Your post title should accurately and concisely describe your problem, not your anticipated solution.

    Use terms appropriate to a Google search. Poor thread titles, like Please Help, Urgent, Need Help, Formula Problem, Code Problem, and Need Advice will be addressed according to the OP's experience in the forum: If you have less than 10 posts, expect (and respond to) a request to change your thread title. If you have 10 or more posts, expect your post to be locked, so you can start a new thread with an appropriate title.

    To change a Title go to your first post, click EDIT then Go Advanced and change your title, if 2 days have passed ask a moderator to do it for you.

    (This thread should receive no further responses until this moderation request is fulfilled, as per Forum Rule 7)

    Many members are unable to see images in the *.png format due to forum compatibility issues with some browsers.

    If you need to post an image post it in the *.jpg format.

    Even better than posting images... post a SMALL sample file. That way we can test solutions directly in the file with the relevant data.

    You're probably wondering why you even bothered to come here!
