Re-reading, I think you are right. I missed the emphasis of any. Pit, mine
was much simpler :-)

Bob - Your formula simply sums the values and divides by the control
number.
I believe (unless I read wrong) he wanted to check if each individual
number
divided by the control number is less than .6, in which case my formula
would
have to be used:

=SUMPRODUCT(--(A1:A100/A101<0.6))

Assume your numbers are in A1:A100 and your control number is in A101,
this
function counts the number of entries meeting this condition:

=SUMPRODUCT(--(A1:A100/A101<0.6))

Hello there-

I have a column of 10 numbers. The last row of the column is a
control
value. I would like to know the easiest way to see if any of the
previous 9
numbers in a column divided by the control number is .6 or less. I
tried OR
function and it works, but I will be dealing with bigger columns of
up
to 100
numbers to compare to a control number and the OR function in this
case
would
be cumbersome.
