i need to create a spread sheet to use for tick marks through out the day. I
need the ticks added up and then totaled by catagory. How do I add the

You have not explained this very well!
Suppose you have column A for counting cats and B for counting dogs. Every
time you see a cat you put an X in the next empty cell of column A.
In C1 use =COUNTIF(A:A."X") to count the cats. Note the X's could be x's -
not case sensitive.
Anywhere near the problem?

Sounds like you are talking about the SUM(...) function, as far as I can
tell. Use as follows:

=SUM(summation_range)
