Hi,
I have data in 2 columns ex. Col 1: Name, Col 2: Amount
A name can appear multiple times with same or different amounts.

Ex: Col 1 : A, C, A, A,A ; Col 2: $10, $30, $40, $20, $30

Can someone suggest if there is a function in excel 2003 i can use with the
data from Col 1 and Col 2 and by giving a search entry "A" i should get the
sum of all corresponding A entries in Column 2 i.e. $100

Thanks in advance
 
Try something like this...

=SUMIF(A2:A6,"A",B2:B6)

Or, using a cell to hold the criteria:

D2 = A

=SUMIF(A2:A6,D2,B2:B6)
