I also tested against Bill because you said you wanted it for each
member.
Bill was just an example name.

Hi
The reason Bob used the sumproduct formula along with the
A2:A200="Bill"
argument is that he inferred that you wanted to count the number of
x's per person eg Bill. If you just want to count the total number of
x's as well as the total number of d's then you could use:
=COUNTIF(A2:A28,"=x")+COUNTIF(A2:A28,"=d")
and to multiply that by the dollar value
=(COUNTIF(A2:A28,"=x")+COUNTIF(A2:A28,"=d"))*10
Or if you wanted to stick with the sumproduct then
=SUMPRODUCT((A2:A28="x")+(A2:A28="d"))*10
Hope this helps

Ok, I think I am getting there... I got it to work with one argument
but
when
I try to use to arguments I get a "0" values
I have column it setup like this
Member name | Week 1
x
x
x
x
x
d
d
x
d
x
x
Now I want it to tell me how many instances of x and D so I modified
it
like
so:
=SUMPRODUCT(--(C2:C29="d"),--(C2:C29="x"))*1
THis is returning a "0"
Not sure what is wrong. So to recap, I want it to tell me how many
times
"x"
occurs and then "d" occurs.

Update: I adjust the A2-A2000 to A2:28 to fit my sheet, and changed
dolar_value to 10. I get an aswer now, but the answer is 10 it is
not
multiplying each instance of "x" times 10.
THanks!

I have read a lot of posts, and maybe I am way out of my leage.
I am trying to setup a spreed sheet for our fire department.
We want to create a way to track training pay. When someone attends
the
training we want to just put an "x" in next to their name in the
column
for
that training event rather then 9.75 for example. But we also want
to
be able
to add up all training for that individual for the year and see
what we
paid
them.
The idea is we have a sheet that shows us checks of who attended
and
who
did not. But we also want to add up the pay associated with that x.
So:
We want column A to be member names
Column B is a training event.
We want to go down and put in an "X" for each member who attended.
Now What I want is to have that "x" be associated with a dollar
value.
For
example lets say that they get $10 for that training.
THe idea is that I can run a total at the end of the year for each
member
for each "x" and see how much money they recieved. I.E. the "x" is
a
hidden
value maybe that when I add up all the "x"s for a member it will
give
me
total dolar value for all training they attended.
I hope that makes sensce and I don't know a lot about excel.
THanks!
