Name Lookup

Say Worksheet 1 / Column A contains a list of last names, and Column B
contains a list of first names.

In the remaining worksheets, Columns A and B also contain a list of last and
first names. Along with the amounts, in column C, that I'm looking to get
totals for.

Worksheet 1 contains a list of the people who could be on any of the
remaining worksheets. But, Worksheet 3 for example might not have all the
names that are listed on Worksheet 1.

So, I need to compare the names that are on Worksheet 1 to the names on
Worksheet 2 (3, 4, etc.) before taking the amount from Column C to add.

For Instance:

Worksheet 1
Column A Column B Column C
Smith John 150 (Column C would be added up
from the Smith John's on the other worksheets in wslst)
Doe Jane $130
Jones Loretta $40
Mugg Wilbur $40

Worksheet 2
Smith John $50.00
Doe Jane $50.00
Jones Loretta $40.00

Workseheet 3
Smith John $50.00
Doe Jane $40.00

Worksheet 4
Smith John $50.00
Doe Jane $40.00
Mugg Wilbur $40.00

Hi
some solutions:
1. Harlan Grove showed a formula approach for a
conditional sum accross
multiple worksheets. Have a look at this thread
http://tinyurl.com/2manj

2. You may also try to download the free add-in
Morefunc.xll
(http://longre.free.fr/english). The function THREED
converts a 3D
array to a 2D array. e.g. you may use the following
formula on your
sheet
=SUM((THREED('sheet2:sheet5'!A1:A1000)=A1)*(THREED
('sheet2:sheet5'!B1:B1000)=A1)*(THREED('sheet2:sheet5'!
C1:C1000)))
