Can't. Try DSUM or SUMPRODUCT instead.

If the functions in the freely downloadable file at
http://home.pacbell.net/beban are available to your workbook

=SUM(VLookups(lookup_value, lookup_range, return_column))

thanks Alan but its not working, its giving me only the last matching number
from lookup_range not the sum of all the matching values, and if i try to
find exact match , its returning the first matching number! any other idea? I
will have more than 1000 rows with from where i need to find the sum of
matching values.

Hi RZ,

I think your description of the requirements threw everyone off the path...

Try this in sheet1!B1

=sumif(sheet2!A:A, sheet1!A1, sheet2!B:B)

Thanks smartin, SUMIF is working fine , i m sorry if my explanation made it
difficult to resolve the problem.
