If it is always every other row for 2004 use

=SUMPRODUCT((MOD(COLUMN(A2:F2),2)=1)*((A2:F2<0.03) +(A2:F20.7)))

for 2005 use

=SUMPRODUCT((MOD(COLUMN(A2:F2),2)=0)*((A2:F2<0.03) +(A2:F20.7)))

Would like your help for this one:

I have a large sheet with data sorted in columns split for 2004 and 2005
(see below). I want to count the numbers of cells for e.g. 2004 that are
below 3% or above 70% (answers should be 1), however the formula does not
work and I have no idea why.

Appreciate if a expert could have a look at this. hope I explained it good
enough

Thnks in advance, RMF

A B C D E F
1 2004 2005 2004 2005 2004 2005
2 40.00% 80.0% 90.0% 40.0% 50% 60%

=SUM(IF(((A2,C2,E2)<0.03)+((A2,C2,E2)0.7),1,0))

= #VALUE!
