I am using the following formula:
=SUMPRODUCT((B28:B392000)*(D28:D40="*Best*"))
and it gives me #N/A

Is there something wrong with this? I have #'s that range from
2-4000
in column B and Words that do contain "Best"

Any help? I will email file if it helps....

COUNTIF supports only one criterion. You have 2, so no, you can't
use COUNTIF here. You need SUMPRODUCT or an array formula.
