Default Conditional Identifiaction Of Unique Entries


Hi

I formula that identifies unique entries in a column and counts the
total as shown below:

=SUMPRODUCT(B8:B501<"")/(COUNTIF(B8:B501,B8:B501&"")))

I am trying to get this formula to work only where a precondition
exists, i.e. that an associated field is set to "yes"

This works fine on normal SUMIF functions as shown below:

=SUMIF(S8:S501,"Yes",P8:P525)

However when I try o combine the 2 scenarious I receive a Value#
error.

The formula I am trying is shown below:

=IF(S8:S501,"Yes",SUMPRODUCT(B8:B501<"")/(COUNTIF(B8:B501,B8:B501&"")))

Anyone any ideas?

Many thanks
