Hi Jessie

assuming you're not using VBA code to do this then one formula would be
=SUMPRODUCT(--(A6:A66="date"),--(E6:D66="dept"),G6:G66)

note, if you're using actual dates and not the cell reference containing the
date you want to sum on, you need to put the date into another function e.g.
=SUMPRODUCT(--(A6:A66=DateValue("01/01/05")),--(E6:D66="dept"),G6:G66)

Cheers
