I have columns that contain text (Populated from drop down lists). I need to be able to sum the totals of each type from the drop down list. These totals can either be displayed on a second sheet, any ideas?

Which column are you summing? There are no values in any columns... as I can see.
Also, What is the summing/counting going to be based on?

There's a dropdown in B2 is that the one you mean? So if I select "Suffolk" from the list for example, what needs to be summed?
Sorry, I was kind of vague. The final result would be to determine the total number of stores (Column A) by type of delivery (Column D). So The stores on distributor pallet would need to be separated from let's say rollers and stands and than the totla number of stores would need to be displayed as a whole number, ie... 12 stores on distributor pallet, 18 stores on rollers stands etc. Hope that helps.
Maybe just a simple Pivot Table as per attached in Sheet4?
To get that table.
select Data|Pivot table...
Click Next
Select (verify) range (including headers)
Click Next
Click Layout
Drag Delivery Methodology (Dry) to the Rows Area
Drag Store # to the Data Area.. should default to Count (if not, double-click the dragged item and choose Count).
Thanks for the help
