Same formula as in your previous question, but let's not hard code the
variables.
Designate particular cells to contain the criteria, so that you can easily
change them without having to revise the formula itself.

Previous formula:

=SUMPRODUCT((A1:A100="High")*(B1:B100="High"))

So, let's say you use C1 for the Column A criteria, and C2 for the Column B
criteria:

=SUMPRODUCT((A1:A100=C1)*(B1:B100=C2))

I have 2 colums - satisfaction rating (Col A), and importance rating (Col
B)

I would like to count the # of times a value occurs in Col B based on its
related value in Col A

That is, for example, count the number of occurences of a high importance,
but low satisfaction.

Can anyone help?
