Hi,
Can this be done?
I need a spread sheet that keeps track of work items completed at a job site. The problem is that I have about 150 items to keep track of. Here's an example:
Let's say the following values are placed in cells A1 to J1. Please note that the items in "" are text and the numbers represent the quantity.
2 "VM5-4" 1 "vm5-20" 5 "vm5-29" 6 "e1-4" 5 "VM5-4"
Now I want to sum up all like items which could appear anywhere in a range. My first thought was to use the COUNTIF function which works great if I only have one of any item - but I have more than one item.
So... is there any way I could search a range for a certain text and when it finds a match get it to look in the adjacent box for the quantity and add that to a total?
Thanks...
