    Summing rows that have the same descriptive title

    Hi all.
    You guys have been so helpful to me in the past that I thought I might try again.
    To be honest, I'm not even sure if this is possible.

    Basically what I have is a list of HVAC equipment (that is generated from our software) with the type and quantity of filter or belt that belongs to that piece of equipment.

    I already have a couple of macros for this sheet that delete extra rows and also sort it by the "Item Description"

    Once it is to this point, I need to have a way to sum the quantity of a particular filter or belt.

    It may be easier if I show you, so I have attached the document.

    Like I said, I am not sure if this is possible, but if it is it would save me tons of time at work!

    GRAHAMV2,

    What you're looking for is the Sumif() function.

    try in e14
    =IF(COUNTIF($C$14:C14,C14)=COUNTIF($C$14:$C$500,C14),SUMIF($C$14:$C$500,C14,$D$14:$D$500),"")
    will give you the total alongside the last entry for each

    @ GRAHAMV2

    Based on your last post it seems that you are satisfied with the solution(s) you've received but you haven't marked your thread as SOLVED. I'll do that for you now but please keep in mind for your future threads that Rule #9 requires you to do that yourself. If your problem has not been solved you can use Thread Tools (located above your first post) and choose "Mark this thread as unsolved".
    Thanks.
