Pivot table is what you need
Use pivot table to summarize data. If you need additional help, let me know.

hi nick, thks for ur reply, i am finding it little bit difficult to explain, what exactly is, but still i have managed to give you , hope it will be sufficient,
if u don`t understand the below,i can call u on the skype id if u have one. so that i can explian u clearly what i need.
the first mail was for month 1 and the above is for month 2, and the out come as below,
the cummulaitve of both the months example cust id AF15A1 has brought sugar on 5 visits(i.e, once in month 1 and 4 times in month 2), so need this in vlook up, as i maintain the data month vise, its difficult to enter manually every month, is it possible to have one excel sheet for all the month and then i can do a vlookup cummulative for all the months to find who is purchased/visited what and how mant times.

I still don't see how it's possible to derive the output from your input...
anyway... I think your best bet is to add a column with the month, and then use a pivot table to summarise the totals.
