I want to add the sales (column B) of the people in column A.
A B
James 23
Randy 43
Paul 12
James 40
Paul 50
...and get this result:
C D
James 63
Randy 43
Paul 62
Only the result in column D needs to be calculated.
Any help much appreciated.
Since you state that:
"Only the result in column D needs to be calculated"
I'll assume that you have already entered the list of unique names in Column
C.
So, in D1 enter this:
=Sumif(A$1:A$5,C1,B$1:B$5)
And copy down.
