Sub test()
'define variables
Dim RowNum as long, LastRow As long
'turn off screen updating
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
'start below titles and make full selection of data
RowNum = 2
LastRow = Cells.SpecialCells(xlCellTypeLastCell).Row
Range("A2", Cells(LastRow, 4)).Select
'For loop for all rows in selection with cells
For Each Row In Selection
With Cells
'if customer name matches
If Cells(RowNum, 1) = Cells(RowNum + 1, 1) Then
'and if customer year matches
If Cells(RowNum, 4) = Cells(RowNum + 1, 4) Then
'move attribute 2 up next to attribute 1 and delete empty line
Cells(RowNum + 1, 12).Copy Destination:=Cells(RowNum, 12)
Rows(RowNum + 1).EntireRow.Delete
End If
End If
End With
'increase rownum for next test
RowNum = RowNum + 1
Next Row
'turn on screen updating
Application.ScreenUpdating = True

End Sub

I have the above VBA and it is working, however the red text is moving the value from the second row to the first row, but I would like it to total the 2 values, insert it into the first row and delete the second row.

I've tried a few different things but nothing is working for me. Any help appreciated.

thanks
 

Excel Facts

Return population for a City
If you have a list of cities in A2:A100, use Data, Geography. Then =A2.Population and copy down.
I've been thinking about this. Would it be better to sum the cells to the second row and then copy the total to row one and delete row 2?

I think you might be overthinking it, try:

VBA Code:
Cells(RowNum, 12) = Cells(RowNum, 12) + Cells(RowNum + 1, 12)
