I am looking for a formula to look up the same name then add up the total numbers next to it. It always brings back just one instance when I write my formula.
 

Excel Facts

Save Often
If you start asking yourself if now is a good time to save your Excel workbook, the answer is Yes
so in the example on the page you posted it just shows pen however if I wanted to give the total of all the items separately how would that look?

Create a list of items and copy the formula down

Something like this


[TABLE="class: grid"]
<tbody>[TR]
[TD="bgcolor: #DCE6F1"][/TD]
[TD="bgcolor: #DCE6F1"]
A
[/TD]
[TD="bgcolor: #DCE6F1"]
