I'm trying to help a user get the totals of shirt sizes in an excel file. &nbsp;They routinely come across this and would like to be able to enter in a formula that auto calculates the totals for the different shirt sizes. &nbsp;I've attached a sample of what they are trying to accomplish. &nbsp;There are some details listed below. &nbsp;Thanks for any and all help. <br />

We have 27 different people with varying shirt sizes. Ranging from Small to XL. &nbsp;I need a formula that would auto calculate the shirt sizes then put them into the various corresponding cells for the shirt size totals for each size.<br />
