MIKEZ

I HAVE A LIST OF NAMES AND VALUES AND I WANT TO FILTER THE TOTALS ON A
SEPARATE SPREADSHEET. IN OTHER WORDS EVERY TIME I LIST A NAME WITH AN AMOUNT
IT WILL PUT THE AMOUNT INTO THE CORRESPONDING NAMES RUNNING TOTAL

Just open both spreadsheets at the same time click on the cell that you want
the running total to go in, click the auto sum button, switch spreadsheets
and select the range from which you wish to obtain the total.
if the range is in separate chunks hold down ctrl while selecting the ranges.
