    Finding values by using text in other cell

    Hello,

    I am trying to create a cell that show the value of all specified rows with specific name.

    For example:

    Apples $2 $5 $10
    Oranges $5 $10 $50
    Apples $5 $ 6 $ 60

    (each of these will be in their own cells, 3 rows and 4 columns)

    How do I create a cell that will sum the total value of all the Apples by using Apples as the variable?

    Thank you.

    =SUMPRODUCT(($B$1:$D$4)*($A$1:$A$4="Apples"))
