Hi..  
I am trying to sum values of 'Field 2' as per unique value stored in another 'Field 1'

index **\_color**

**Field 1** ------------------- **Field 2**  
Red-------------------------------2  
Orange-------------------------5  
Red-----------------------------2  
Green-------------------------3  
Green-----------------------3  
Orange--------------------5  
Red------------------------2

So my answer should be 2+5+3=10  
How to do that....

thanks...
