I have three columns with a cost code, description, and amount such as listed
below.

071.300 Waterproofing Systems $1,000
071.300 Waterproofing Systems $1,000
071.420 Hot Fluid-Applied Water $1,000
074.110 Metal Roof Panels $1,000
074.110 Metal Roof Panels $1,000

I would like to sum and consolidate the amounts for each cost code so that I
do not have duplicates.

Such as with the above list I would like it to show:
071.300 Waterproofing Systems $2,000
071.420 Hot Fluid-Applied Water $1,000
074.110 Metal Roof Panels $2,000

What is the best way to accomplish this?
 
I would use a pivottable.

If you've never used pivottables, here are a few links:

Debra Dalgleish's pictures at Jon Peltier's site:

And Debra's own site:

John Walkenbach also has some at:

(look for Tony Gwynn's Hit Database)

Chip Pearson keeps Harald Staff's notes at:

MS has some at (xl2000 and xl2002):
