    Possibly vlookup

    i want to be able to use the vlookup function and pull values to total them. The problem I am having is this:


    In the vlookup formula the value that I want to look up is sometimes used multiple times within the range.

    Bob 12 14 16
    Tim 22 33 45
    Tom 34 45 76
    Bob 85 35 35

    If I want to lookup "Bob" from column 2 and total the values - how do i write the formula?

    THANKS!!!

    Hi,

    How about using SUMIF

    =SUMIF(A1:D4,"Bob",B1:B4)
