Hi, I have data as shown below.
Col-A Col-B Col-C Col-D
a 10 b
b 15 d
c 20
d 25
e 30
I need the sum of "b" and "d" values(15+25) in column D1(40). If I add the
any letter of Col-A in column c it will automatically update the value in D1.
Could any one help me please. Thanks in advance.
From: Bernard Liengme on
=SUMIF(A:A,C1,B:B)
assuming cell C1 holds the value b
best wishes

Hi,
in D1 enter
=sumproduct(--(C1=$a$1:$A$1000),$B$1:$B$1000)

change range to fit your needs

In D1: =SUMPRODUCT(--(ISNUMBER(MATCH(A1:A10,C1:C2,0))),B1:B10)
where C1:C2 houses the elements, eg: b, d (as you posted)
Success? hit the YES below
