Depending on how your data is laid out, you may be able to sort it and then use
data|subtotals.

Or maybe even data|Pivottable.

If you've never use pivottables, here are a few links:

Debra Dalgleish's pictures at Jon Peltier's site:

And Debra's own site:

John Walkenbach also has some at:

(look for Tony Gwynn's Hit Database)

Chip Pearson keeps Harald Staff's notes at:
http://www.cpearson.com/excel/pivots.htm

MS has some at (xl2000 and xl2002):
