    Consolidate like values and sum data

    Hello,

    I am having trouble finding the correct function to combine data on a spreadsheet I'm working on (attached). Essentially, I have data in column A with names, many of which occur several times throughout the column. However, each row has a specific numerical value in column B. I am trying to consolidate the data by combining rows with similar names but summing the numerical values. For example:

    Name, Value
    A, 3
    A, 2
    A, 7
    B, 4
    C, 11
    C, 6

    Becomes...

    Name, Value
    A, 12
    B, 4
    C, 17

    If someone could help me out with the function and how to complete it, that would be greatly appreciated.

    Cheers,
    chandy
