Pman,
Delete the code I already posted and paste in the code here in this post.
This will total the columns you posted.
Sub Pman()
Dim iLastRow As Long
Dim look4Me As String
Dim vAddingUp(14) As Variant
Dim k As Integer
iLastRow = Range("A" & Range("A:A").Rows.Count).End(xlUp).Row
'change to the column you want to search
Range("A1").Select 'go to the top of the column to begin searching
Do Until iLastRow = -1
If ActiveCell <> "" Then look4Me = ActiveCell
If ActiveCell = look4Me Then
vAddingUp(1) = vAddingUp(1) + ActiveCell.Offset(0, 9)
vAddingUp(2) = vAddingUp(2) + ActiveCell.Offset(0, 11)
vAddingUp(3) = vAddingUp(3) + ActiveCell.Offset(0, 13)
vAddingUp(4) = vAddingUp(4) + ActiveCell.Offset(0, 15)
vAddingUp(5) = vAddingUp(5) + ActiveCell.Offset(0, 17)
vAddingUp(6) = vAddingUp(6) + ActiveCell.Offset(0, 19)
vAddingUp(7) = vAddingUp(7) + ActiveCell.Offset(0, 21)
vAddingUp(8) = vAddingUp(8) + ActiveCell.Offset(0, 23)
vAddingUp(9) = vAddingUp(9) + ActiveCell.Offset(0, 25)
vAddingUp(10) = vAddingUp(10) + ActiveCell.Offset(0, 27)
vAddingUp(11) = vAddingUp(11) + ActiveCell.Offset(0, 29)
vAddingUp(12) = vAddingUp(12) + ActiveCell.Offset(0, 31)
vAddingUp(13) = vAddingUp(13) + ActiveCell.Offset(0, 32)
vAddingUp(14) = vAddingUp(14) + ActiveCell.Offset(0, 33)
Else
ActiveCell.Offset(0, 9) = vAddingUp(1)
ActiveCell.Offset(0, 11) = vAddingUp(2)
ActiveCell.Offset(0, 13) = vAddingUp(3)
ActiveCell.Offset(0, 15) = vAddingUp(4)
ActiveCell.Offset(0, 17) = vAddingUp(5)
ActiveCell.Offset(0, 19) = vAddingUp(6)
ActiveCell.Offset(0, 21) = vAddingUp(7)
ActiveCell.Offset(0, 23) = vAddingUp(8)

ActiveCell.Offset(0, 32) = vAddingUp(13)
ActiveCell.Offset(0, 33) = vAddingUp(14)
'reset for next pub
For k = 1 To 14
vAddingUp(k) = 0
Next k
End If
iLastRow = iLastRow - 1
ActiveCell.Offset(1, 0).Select
Loop
End Sub
