sum first 2 chars if 3rd is something...
Your function =SUM(VALUE(LEFT(a1:a10;2))) works if you have xx-yx type
values not in a row but in Column A (A1:A10) and you confirm it with
Ctrl+Shift+Enter (array formula).
=SUMPRODUCT(--(MID(H8:K8,4,1)="A"),VALUE(LEFT(H8:K8,2)))
sums up xx values in range H8:K8 if x="A"

hello,
I got a row of data formated in xx-yy, where xx represents percentage
(number), - is delimiter from and yx definition as letter+number. (e.g.
55-A1, 60-V2...)
What I want to do is sum only first two xx values, if y equals A for
the whole row.
I tested the sum finction =SUM(VALUE(LEFT(a1:a10;2))), which in
function dialog view sums the values correctly, while in the
spreadsheet (after pressing enter), it returns a #VALUE! error.
What I came up with (and should work, as I understand) is
=SUMIF(LEFT(H8:K8;4);"*a*";LEFT(H8:K8;2))
=IF(H8:K8="*a*";SUM(LEFT(H8:K8;2));)
but it does not work. Where do I make a mistake?
Thanks!
