Totalling figues in a column depending on criteria in another

Hi
I need to only total the figures in a column if a certain text is written in another column.
Thanks
Denis

You can sumif. For example
=SUMIF(A1:A3,"bird",B1:B3)

will total the items in in B where the corresponding cell in A are bird
You can also refer to a cell as well.

good luck

Use SUMIF().

I'm always guilty of the same(usually more than 11 seconds though)
