vlookup totals?

I have two spreadsheets - In one column on this 1st sheet, there is a product
code. On another spreadsheet, one of the columns uses the corresponding
product code on more than one occasion in the column.

I need the second column of the first sheet to calculate the totals
corresponding to the product codes in the second sheet.....

So, rather than just return one value, i need vlookup to total all of them
where the product code matches - is this possible?
 
In second column on Sheet1

=Sumproduct((sheet2!$a$1:$a$100=a1)*(sheet2!$b$1:$b$100)

This match code in (sheet1) A1 against codes on sheet2 and sum the values in
column B (but sure if this what you want)

If simply want count of number of times product occurs then:

=Sumproduct(--(sheet2!$a$1:$a$100=a1))

Or

=COUNTIF(Sheet2!$A$1:$A$4,"=" &A1)

Toppers - you live up to your name! Thanks for the speedy response...
Unfortunately my brain isn't working and i I still can't get it to work -
here's an example of what i want

Sheet 1 :

A B C D
Product Total
Codes sales

1 apples
2 pears
3 bananas

Sheet 2:


s t u v
Product Sales
Codes
48 apples 20
49 pears 15
50 bananas 23
51 apples 8
52 apples 13
53 bananas 15
For example, i want the value returned in B1 sheet 1 to be 41 and b3 to be
38...

What formula do i need to type in sheet one column b1 for example?

Many thanks!
 
Sorry - those sheets should have looked like :

Sheet 1 :

..........A................ B........... C .........D
......Product .........Total
......Codes ..........sales
1 ..apples
2 ..pears
3 ..bananas

Sheet 2:


..............s...................t.............. u ...............v
.............Product... Sales
.............Codes
48 ......apples........ 20
49...... pears .........15
50..... bananas...... 23
51 ......apples .........8
52 .....apples .........13
53 ...bananas .........15
 
Hi Lazclark,

did you try sumif?
on the 2nd column of sheet 1 include:

=sumif(a2,sheet2!a2:a1000,sheet2!b2:b1000)

In cell B2 on Sheet1 and copy down

=SUMPRODUCT(--(Sheet2!$T$2:$T$7=A2),(Sheet2!$U$2:$U$7))

Change ranges of T & U to suit (product codes in T, Sales in U?)

HTH
