Default Help With Formula

Thanks.

The last portion of the argument looks at the word in cell A35 and finds all
cells between O31:O1026 that contain that word on the overall worksheet.
Then I get my total. So I probably need something in the last portion as
well that looks at the Overall worksheet.

You dropped a comma between arguments. You dropped the --() when you were
checking the month.

And I think the rest depends on what's in your data.

If Overall!o31:o1026 contain dates, then you're missing month() surrounding that
range.

=SUMPRODUCT(--(MONTH(Overall!O31:O1026)=MONTH(C28)),
--(ISNUMBER(SEARCH(A35,O31:O1026))))

(all one cell)

Also, you used o31:o1026. Did you mean to use o31:o1026 of the sheet with the
formula in that last portion? But if that's true, then I'm not sure what you
want to do with that last argument.

You may want to describe what you're doing in words.

I am trying to use this formula to sum/count from another worksheet. What am
I missing? I keep getting a FALSE answer instead of numbers.

=SUMPRODUCT(Overall!O31:O1026)=MONTH(C28)--(ISNUMBER(SEARCH(A35,O31:O1026)))
