If Cell B2 and B4 equals 6 then sum C2 and C4 into D2

I need an excel formula that looks across a row and evaluates if (B:B) contains N6 then sums all values in row into D2. e.g.  if | B2 = 6 and C2  = 2 | ,  B4 = 6 and C4 = 20 | then D2 = C2+C4 or 2+20 = 20. If you need further information please ask. Thanks in advance :)

Hi,

Your question is quite confusing.

You want a formula to check each cell in the whole of Column B (B:B which would be just over a million cells if working on an xlsx format), and sum up column C from the corresponding cells if the cell in B equals whatever is in N6?

However, in your example, you use a fixed value of '6'.

Do you mean cell N6 or a fixed value of 6?

Also, your example includes a final result of 2 + 20 = 20.  Is that a typo, or do you mean you want to return the largest value from any corresponding cell in Column C (which in your example is 20).


Please clarify and / or correct any typos.

Thanks,

Alan.
I think you need this...

=SUMIF(B:B,N6,C:C)
