Hi!

cant be the full column or row shorthand (A:A won't work)

Sumproduct will work on entire rows but not on entire columns:

=SUMPRODUCT(--(1:1="x"),--(2:2="y"),3:3)

try
=sumproduct(--(D1:D1000<""),--(C1:C1000="Amanda"))
the --( changes the logical true false to a numeric 1 0
and the arrays in each section needs to be the same size but cant be the
full column or row shorthand (A:A won't work)
