extracting totals from within a spreadsheet

I need to know how to take different information from within a spreadsheet
--where two conditions/catogories must apply so that a third column where i
have inputed hours, will total for those conditions only... can anyone help?

I think you need to provide much more detail.

alright, I will try.
There are columns titled age groups, columns to indicate "hearing person"
column for "deaf" and two more columns that indicate "working" and "not
working" (in these two columns i have inputed hours). I need to select a
certain age group, and break out of the spreadsheet this information, for
example: age 65, deaf, working...and that total of hours I have worked with
that catagory. age 65, hearing, working. age 65 hearing not working, and
finally, age 65 deaf and not working. I need it to total the amount of time
I spent in all four catagories AND Ideally, it would also total the actual
number of contacts indicated in the age column, for each category.
Is this totally confusing?
