Since I do no see a way to do this with just functions, I think I am going 
to have to write some code to do this myself, but I would appreciate a word 
from the experts (aka you people)

I have a table with just shy of 50,000 rows that looks something like this:

Key1     Key2      MinDate    MaxDate    TotalItems
A            1          10/1/2010  4/2/2011         12
B            4           03/1/2009  09/10/2014     52
C            24         01/2/2015   4/17/2015      08
B            4          02/15/2008  06/03/2012    10

I need to summarize this down to:
Key1     Key2      MinDate    MaxDate    TotalItems
A            1          10/1/2010  4/2/2011         12
B            4          02/15/208  09/10/2014      62
C            24         01/2/2015   4/17/2015      08


I just can't see how to do this without reading all 50,000 rows 50,000 
times since VLookup will not return multiple records using a compound key. 
  Add to that I don't remember the process for reading each record in a 
table and stopping at the end of the table.  (Can you say it has been a 
looong time since I wrote VBA code like this?)

Is there a kind soul out there that can push me in the correct direction 
with some suggestions?

Thanks to everyone who takes the time to reply ahead of time!  I do 
appreciate it.
