    Needed: Calculation formule with different columns

    Dear everyone,

    First of all thanks alot for helping!
    I have already alot of data in my excel form, now i am creating a new colom in which I want to calculate some data from other colums.

    Let me draw a small sketchs as example:
    A B C
    1 1 848 (All data which belong to the category A=1 (all numbers from B who belong to an 1 @ A)
    2 1 343
    3 1 234
    4 2 232
    5 2 45
    6 2 567
    7 2 565
    8 3 920
    9 3 842
    10 3 34

    My question is, what is the formula for C in order to save me alot of time in doing it by hand?
    Sorry for my bad explenation, and my even worse english. I hope some1 can help me, thanks alot!!

    Kind regards, Elmer

    Re: Pretty basic calculation formula but i forgot it :P

    Hey, thank you!

    Well it is all about orders.

    Column A: What day did the order came in?
    Column B: What is the amount of this specific order?

    Now I am trying to set up column c:
    Column C: What is the total amount of orders per day

    I need something like:

    =Amount(B;1) or something as a start.
    Then next to thati need something like
    =SUM;E(B;$1)

    Yes! That is the correct answer indeed! How did you do that, I do understand your code but how do I fill it in for all?

    Re: Needed: Calculation formule with different columns

    a better idea would be to do a pivot to see the sum of order amounts for each of the order dates.
    I have shown it on "Sum of order amounts" tab on the attachment
