In Sheet K

K3: =IF(INDEX('Sheet RC'!BB:BB,MATCH(C3,'Sheet RC'!A:A,0))=0,"",INDEX('Sheet
RC'!BB:BB,MATCH(C3,'Sheet RC'!A:A,0)))

L3: =IF(K3="","",LOOKUP(2,1/(('Sheet RC'!A:A=C3)*('Sheet
RC'!BC:BC<>"")),'Sheet RC'!BC:BC))

Select K3 and L3 and copy down as far as needed.

Bill,

You could use VLOOKUP with False as the fourth parameter to return the value from BB, and SUMIF to
return the value from BC.

Hi Teethless mama
Thank you for your time ,but the work sheet functions you
gave me returned blank cells
Does it make a difference because I'm using excel 2000 ?

Hi Teethless mama
Thank you for your time , the first formula in sheet K
cell K3 is great
The second formula in sheet K cell L3 returns a #NUM!
could you have a look for me please , I have checked
to see if I made a mistake , but I did not.
