SUM(IF) question

OOps, I've copied the formula down and now I get a void where there
shouldn't be voids but should be values. Any thoughts?

I had trouble following your explanation, but in the light of your last
post, perhaps you just want

=IF('Cheque Register'!E2="VOID","VOID",
SUMIF('Cheque Register'!A$2:A$195,B47,'Cheque Register'!C$2:C$195))

and copy that down.

First I'd like to say I really appreciate your help with all this. I've
noticed that you are on here alot and are "THE" guru.

Maybe if I gave a better explanation of what I'm after. I have a sheet of
data as follows:

(A) (B) (C) (D) (E)
Chq #'s paid to Chq $ indicating void formula input
"VOID"
123 xyz 98.24 0
124 abc 212.50 1 VOID
126 mno 648.50 1 VOID
126 mno 1648.50 0
132 jkl 99.65 0


That give an idea of my data. I had the formula I first listed as a result
of a previous post to the newsgroups here. Dave was nice enough to help me
out and actually directed me to your site on SUMproduct. I am still quite
hazy on sumproduct but got the SUMIF function to work for me. Now I'm trying
to tweak it more so instead of getting a 0 returned for items that are voided
and not relisted but to get a return value of void.

My return data list is a numerical listing of cheques so that I can see
which ones are not accounted for so I can have a short list of numbers to
hunt down. Also so I have a running total of cheques issued for the month.

Let me know if this makes any more sense. The logic in the initial formula
I posted on this thread still makes sense but it's just not returning what I
figure it should.

Thank you.
