Excel function

Is there a function which provides the sum of the values in column B that
correspond to a specified value in column A.
eg

A B
1 2
1 3
2 0
3 0
4 5
4 5
4 5

1 would return 5, 2 or 3 would return 0 and 4 would return 15

I believe "Lookup" is what you are looking for. But you need to ask this
question in the Excel newsgroup.
