i have a spreadsheet set up with the miles that I've biked on a particular day. What I want is to the side to get a grouping of those entries by day and the sum. I can do it with subtotals but that inlines them with the data where i want the totals to the side.

The data looks like this, btw:


    Date     Miles
To work     07/18/08     3.2
To home     07/18/08     3.2
To work     07/19/08     3.2
To home     07/19/08     3.2



John

Can I suggest a different format of the data

Date      to work      from work    other       total
07/18/08   3.2           3.2          0          6.4
07/19/08   3.2           3.2          0          6.4



Actually, there are other types of trips that are on there. I will look into the pivot table idea, though.

I think that the other types of trips would be more easily handled by putting in more "other columns" rather than using a pivot table. I think that the day by day design has the benefit of simplicity.
