I have created a crystal report that contains 2 columns.  The first column contains last name sorted A to Z the second column contains a dollar amount. One amount for each name.
Anderson  $10.00
Camp        $10.00
Franks       $10.00
Gapp          $10.00
 
Some where on the report I also want to see
A-F   $20.00
G-N   $20.00
 
How do I accomplish this? 
Note: I have only been using Crystal Reports for about 1 month so techy I'm not.

You can create a formual field to get your sums for different 'groupings'
@AtoF ...
if left({table.namefield},1) in 'A' to 'F' then table.amount else 0
 
@GtoN
if left({table.namefield},1) in 'G' to 'N' then table.amount else 0

Hmmm.
You can use this instead. Was trying to save some typing...
@AtoF ...
if uppercase(left({table.namefield},1)) in ['A','B','C','D','E','F'] then table.amount else 0
