I am compiling a sales report.
I have an spreadsheet that in Column A it has a list of customer names. A number of the customer names are only slightly different for example:
Nielsen Entertainment
AC Nielsen
AC Nielsen - USA..
and so forth. in columns to the left I have yearly sales figures.
For this report they are all basically the same company, so I want to sum up all the sales for a particular year (say 2008).
is there a simple way I can do this without having to go through and search for all the names?
can i write a program/script that says:
IF cell in column A has name=Nielsen, then take Value in Column G and sum and produce a single output of all sales done with that one company?
and have it run that down the entire spreadsheet?
