    Compress Multiple Rows of product and quantity into only 1 row per product

    Hi,

    I have a spreadsheet which contains data as follows and I need it to be compressed. For example my data is as follows;

    Product | Quantity

    Apples 100
    Apples 50
    Apples 20
    Bananas 200
    Bananas 150
    Bananas 50
    Bananas 10
    Carrots 300
    Carrots 200

    I need the data to be compressed to;

    Apples 170
    Bananas 410
    Carrots 500

    Any help is much appreciated

    Tahir
