That is exactly what I gave you, you don't enclose numbers in quotes.

Bob,
Thank you for replying!
I tried this as you suggested but the cells came up blank.
The comparison is not between numbers but between texts
i.e. =sumproduct(--(A1:A100="A&E"),--(B1:B100="Admit to Hospital"))
The idea is to do a count of people who attend A&E and who are then
admitted to the hospital. There are many other options in these two
columns but I need to be able to quickly count these particular two.
Am I doing this wrong in some way?
