I have a list full of information on my sheet. One column displays a
department number and another column displays a number of hours that
this department has worked.

I need to sum together all the hours of a certain department to get an
overall total.

e.g.

Dept Number Number of Hours
151 4
151 4
151 1
132 6
132 2
151 4
144 8
144 3
132 1

How do i sum all the numbers of hours for department 151?? im assuming
its an IF statement??

If your list starts in cell A1 and the Department you are "summing" is in E1
using your data as an example you could use =SUMPRODUCT((A1:A9=E1)*(B1:B9))
in say cell F1 which gives 13. Change cell E1 to read 132 and the answer in
F1 is 9.

Hope this helps
