[TD="colspan: 13"]I am looking for a formula to go into G2 that finds the combined sum in column D that is adjacent to the product in column C, but for the choice of product to be dictated by the product name in F2. So the formula needs to be clever enough to change the volume if the name in F2 changes.[/TD]

Oh man that worked thank you so much!

It's made me wonder if you could apply this to a 4 column rule instead of 2?

What i forgot to mention was that C2:C6 and E2:E6 are Data Validation drop-down lists and for some reason the formula inst liking it, as when i manually type in the data for the product names the formula works.

So what the issue seems to be is that even though i need =SUMIF(C:C,F2,D:D) i need it to only go from row 2 to 8 rather than reading the whole worksheet.

Based on @Fluff's suggestion try:
Rich (BB code): 
=SUMIF($C$2:$C$8,H2,$D$2:$D$8)+SUMIF($E$2:$E$8,H2,$F$2:$F$8)
