MS Office Forum / Excel / New Users / May 2008Adding rows of data based on first column
Not sure if I worded that correctly. Here's what I need to do: I have sales data for a month that is listed individually by date and item number. I need to go through the entire workbook and find each occurance of each item and add together the number of items ordered. Here is an example: Item TotalOrdered 119 1 121 1 121 1 121 1 182 1 182 1 206 1 206 1 223 1 589 1 589 1 As you can see, item 121 had 3 ordered, 589 had 2 ordered. Is there a formula I can use to do this automatically? Thanks.

Thanks Don. I checked Countif, and it looks like would work if "total ordered" was always 1, but that is not the case. I have to be able to look up the item number and add the number(s) in column "b" together. Would I still use countif?

Your OP said COUNT. If you want to count use countif. If you want to "add the number(s) in column "b" together" use =SUMIF(H2:H22,589,I2:I22) SignatureDon Guillett Microsoft MVP Excel SalesAid Software dguillett1@austin.rr.com > Thanks Don.
