Hi, I have a problem with MS Excel. It's hard to explain what I want, so I'll
give you an example..
I have one column with names (most appear more than once), and about 3 columns
of data:
A B C D
1 Bob Barker 10 20 30
2 Forrest Gump 43 54 234
3 Bob Barker 32400 344 5432
4 Bob Barker 2320 32 3421
5 Forrest Gump 32 237 1239
6- More names
Ok, now I need to sort them by name, add all the totals of the B's, the C's,
and the D's into the first row with the name (i.e. row 1 with all the totals
for bob barker, and row two with all the totals for forrest). Then I need to
delete all the lines for the person _but_ the first one with all the totals.
So, the final output would be
A B C D
1 Bob Barker (Total of the three) (Total of the three) (Total of the three)
2 Forrest (Total of the three) (Total of the three) (Total of the three)
3- More names sorted.
Right now I am doing this manually, but I have over 1000 lines in this one
file, which is about 176k. I also have some files that are over 2 meg, which
would be impossible for me to do manually.
I would _GREATLY_ appreciate any help, and please reply to my e-mail address.
