Question : group by and sum function in SQL

I'm trying to create a time management application where users can log the amount of time they spend on each project.

The fields are:
firstName, lastName, projectName, date, timeSpent

Users can add multiple records for each project per day and a project can take multiple days to complete so how can I
1. sum the hours spent on a project for that day
2. sort by last name
