    Sumif formula Simplification

    Hi Guys
    I have created a spreadsheet with a bunch of sumif formulas. I couldnt get them to work properly and then did this formula =SUMIF($D$2:$D$39,"*R10*",$B$2:$B$39)+SUMIF($E$2:$E$39,"*R10*",$B$2:$B$39)+SUMIF($F$2:$F$39,"*R10*",$B$2:$B$39)+SUMIF($G$2:$G$39,"*R10*",$B$2:$B$39)+SUMIF($C$2:$C$39,"*R10*",$B$2:$B$39). Now this formula works fine but I know there must be a simpler solution. I have tried sumproduct and sumifs but they didn't work properly. It would be greatly appreciated if someone is able to help me simplify my formula. I find this happens to me a bit sometimes and I just cannot figure out the best way of simplifying them.
    Thanks In advance
    Tristan

    That's ok thanks for trying though. As I said my way works but it just looks like there would be a simpler way and I am sure there probably is. I just can't figure it out

    Thanks Chinraj that kind of works except its missing the data from column "c" (under Robes A) is there a reason why it would see the info in the other columns but not column "c"?
