Excel formula

I have a spreadsheet in which rows 24 to 168 have types identified in row D and attributes/values relating to each type in the other columns to the right of D.

Below this is another zone which has locations identified on each row, and for each location a number of types are entered in cells G to O (max no. of types is 9)

I need a formula which will look up the relevant types which occur G to O, then look for the relevant type rows above and find the value of cell AS and add together all (i.e. up to 9 values)

Can you please help?



RE: Excel formula

Hi Liz,

Thanks for the forum question.

I have attached a workbook where you in sheet1 cell B5 can see my solution.

I am using a sumproduct and vlookup functions.

If you change the value (1 to 5) in A5 you can see that Excel add up in B5.

In the vlookup I refer to an array by using curly brackets {}. The array I refer to is {2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10} column 2 to 10 in the vlookup array.

I hope this will do what you want.

Kind regards

Excel tip:

Jumping Across the Excel Screen

PgDn and PgUp keys scrolls up and down a screen page in most applications.

Alt+PgDn and Alt+PgUp is the equivalent across the spreadsheet.
