Hi I have a real good one!!

in WKBKA SHT1 I have a range of text strings in Column A and figures in colum c and d of rows 6 through to 66 for example...


My consolidation of figures in WKBKB SHT1 would look at adding to its already existing amount in Column X row 1 for example;

I was hoping that in WKBKB I could perform a function that would look to match the text string in WKBKA column A and when there is a match to perform an add function to what ever is already existing in WKBKB

IE....

WKBKA / SHT1 (school ABC)

Row | Column
A B C
1 TOTALS OCT NOV
2 No of attendees 20 10
3 No of classes 3 6
4 No of vacanies 23 16

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
WKBKB / SHT1 (combined Schools)

Row | Column
A B C
1 TOTALS NOV OCT
2 No of vacancies 567 998
3 No of attendees 345 777
4 No of classes 66 77
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I want to be able to run a macros that I would be able to include the name of the new WKBK and it would add to the existing total in WKBKB the extra information in WKBKA, mind you it would need to look to match the text string in column A and that in Row header in order to add the right numbers to the right cells

Thanks heaps KOSTAS
