Need help on this one, not a lot of time to try to learn it on my own:


I have a list of employees in column A

I have list of various job codes in column C with assigned employee
number associated with that job code in column D,

in range of row 5 through 960.



I need the formula to read the employee number in A1,
then search for that employee number in D5:D960,
then count the number of specific job codes in the associated column
C5:C960


Employee 7004 did xx number of TC, SC, NC, DM, etc.



Similar to this formula, but the "7004" is a variable that needs to be
read from a cell rather be an absolute, and the "TC" needs to read that
and about 10 more codes


=SUMPRODUCT(($D$5:$D$960={"7004"})*($C$5:$C$960= "TC"))



thanks for saving me, again..
