Can you use sumif or V lookup to total elements in one column based on values in another column?

Good morning, I am trying to use sumif and/or vlookup to solve my problem in my worksheet and there are too many variables for my expertise. The data is set up like this:

[TABLE="width: 343"]
<colgroup><col><col><col><col></colgroup><tbody>[TR]
[TD="colspan: 4"][TABLE="class: grid, width: 500"]
<tbody>[TR]
[TD] A
[/TD]
[TD]B
[/TD]
[TD]C
[/TD]
[TD]D
[/TD]
[/TR]
[TR]
[TD]Eng Hours
[/TD]
[TD]Survey Hours
[/TD]
[TD]Rate
[/TD]
[TD]Total

I want to create a formula that will total column D for Eng hours and for Survey Hours on another sheet

Eng Total = $1850.00
Survey Total $1130.00

Is this possible to do the way my budget worksheet is already set up?

Thanks in advance!

Excel Facts

When they said...
When they said you are going to "Excel at life", they meant you "will be doing Excel your whole life".
Your column D shows the total per record, regardless Eng or Survey... Such is confusing in light of what you seem to be looking for...

Let A:C of Sheet1 house the data.

In A1 of Sheet2 enter:

Eng

In A2 of Sheet2 enter:

Survey

Now in B1 of Sheet2 enter and copy down:

=SUMPRODUCT(Sheet1!$C$2:$C$6,INDEX($A$2:$B$6,0,MATCH(A1&"*",Sheet1!$A$1:$B$1,0)))

Note that the table does not list a rate in C6.

Hope this helps.

Thank you for your response! I was hoping to avoid recreating my budget worksheet - After more searches, I discovered it actually works to use a simple if/sumif - I just wasn't doing it correctly.

=IF(B6="Eng",SUMIF('Budget Hours by Phase'!$D$7:$D$28,">0",'Budget Hours by Phase'!$G$7:$G$28),SUMIF('Budget Hours by Phase'!$E$7:$E$28,">0",'Budget Hours by Phase'!$G$7:$G$28))

Thanks again!
