Maybe you mean in E3:

=SUMPRODUCT((Name="Bloggs J")*(Hours=10))

which would return the count you're after in your line
=COUNTIF(Name,"Bloggs J" and Hours,= number)
assuming the "Hours" number = 10

Hi all, im trying to get my spreadsheet to count in one cell if certain
criteria appear in two other cells, say for instance
=COUNTIF(Name,"Bloggs J" and Hours,= number) where hours is the next
named range and the number would be from -11 to 11.

So in short i would like the value for "Hours" displayed in Bloggs J
cell (which could be lets say E3) only if Bloggs J appears in the named
range "Name"

Hope that is clear and hope you can help!

Simon
