Hi guys
I've read a few posts on how to sum values across multiple sheets meeting a lookup criteria. None of the threads I've encountered have explained it this noob. I've tried the ExcelJeanie without luck, the version is incompatible with the Excel I am using. The data below is tab delimited, you should be able to copy and paste to Excel. The A,B,C in the first row refer to columns for your reference when posting help.
Sheet 1: CashBook-January
[FONT="]
Sheet 2: [/FONT]CashBook-February
Sheet 3: Category
Sheet 4: Summary by month
I would like to Sum the list items per sheet.
More info that will help:
The "Summary by month" sheet stores totals for each month by category. In other words for sheet "CashBook-January", the list items "gardening" and "garden service" are categorized to the "garden" category for "Jan-18 Total" in the "Summary by month" sheet.
Hope this wasn't too long winded and has enough detail. I'm looking forward to your advice.
Thanks

I would like to Sum the list items per sheet.
More info that will help:
- Each list item in the sheets "CashBook-January" and "CashBook-February" are linked to a category in sheet "Category", i.e. the "Detail" on the cashbook sheets exist in the category "List Item" sheet
The "Summary by month" sheet stores totals for each month by category. In other words for sheet "CashBook-January", the list items "gardening" and "garden service" are categorized to the "garden" category for "Jan-18 Total" in the "Summary by month" sheet.
Hope this wasn't too long winded and has enough detail. I'm looking forward to your advice.
Thanks
