Have used this formula, which is close...but no cigar yet, because
when i drag it across the same results come out for each column!

=SUMPRODUCT(($A$3:$A$14="A")*($B$3:$B$14="1"))

Many thanks for your help,

Simon

=SUMPRODUCT(($A$3:$A$14="A")*(B$3:B$14="1"))- Hide quoted text -

Thanks, but you've just pasted the formula i've already got....any
insight into what i was trying to achieve, something along the lines
of:

=COUNT(($A$3:$A$14="A")*(B$3:B$14="1"))

Cheers, Simon

Take a close look at those two formulas, paying particular attention to
the [ $ ] in them. Don's formula has a critcal distinction from your
formula.

Thanks for your response Clif, but I did notice that - and having
tried Don's formulae these happen:

a) there's no difference from my example
b) when i drag the formula across to the right it drags the " B$3:B
$14="1")) " with it....ie creating, for example, " F$3:F$14="1"))
"....which i don't want.

Not sure if i explained the context correctly, but i want the 2
conditions to remain the same - ie these bits: (($A$3:$A$14="A")*(B$3:B
$14="1")). They are fine!
What i want to do is COUNT the values in the table when these 2
conditions are true...not SUM, SUMPRODUCT, SUMIF.

Any other suggestions?

Cheers, Simon
