Excel Geek Required! Sumif and Autofilter
Hey hey HEY!
I need help.. Annnnnd I need help on excel (before any of you lot got in there!) I have looked up on various google links the below but it just does not make any sense to me and... despite it's not that important... the fact I cannot do it is annoying me so much I now need to do it I'll simplify it... so what I have is as follows: Columns of: (A1)Description - (B1)Client - (C1)Total - (D1)Paid (Yes/No) Now the columns have been autofiltered so I can look at my clients (say Bill, Sarah and Joe) separately. Firstly, what I wanted was to be able to add up all monies paid separately and all the monies outstanding separately. Sooo I did the formula below for all monies paid: =SUMIF(D2: D10,"Yes",C2:C10) Annnnd I did the formula below for all monies outstanding: =SUMIF(D2: D10,"No",C2:C10) Simple, works a treat (note put a gap between ":" and "D10" on here but not on because if I don't this little fella pops up: ! Heeh!). HOWEVER! I now want to be to select a specific client from my autofilter (say Sarah) and do the above... but I don't know how to do this. If I select Sarah on the autofilter, the above formulas still include the data which isn't shown (ie Bill and Joes figures!). Now I've read about subtotals and countif etc but I am now just super confused. People keep chucking random numbers in at the beginning of formulas which, I cannot see, has any relevance to the data! How do I do this people? Can anyone decipher the interweb better than I or perhaps are just whizz kids themselves? I uploaded the simplified version: Stoopido Excel Spreadsheet Thanks peoples x Last edited by Pheebs; 26-10-2011 at 00:27. |
