So that's what I was doing wrong!! I was thinking that I've seen a way to do
this w/sumproduct and an array constant, but couldn't get it.

Thanks for posting, Ragdyer, that was bugging me.

Fellas ... You're all forgetting that you're going *across*, not down!

This works fine for me:

=SUMPRODUCT((C12:AG12={"A";"F"})*C13:AG13)


Hit <F9 after selecting "C12:AG12={"A","F"}",
And you see only 2 returns, with the rest being #N/A,
meaning that the formula is polling down.

The semi-colon just tells it to poll across (I THINK)!<g

I can't get the idea SUMPRODUCT(--(C12:AG12,{"A","F"})*C13:AG13)

Don't worry about it. It won't work. It's not syntatically correct for one
thing and even if you correct that, it still won't work.

Well I see I started something with the {"F","A"}.

Of course =SUM(SUMIF(C12:AG12,{"A","F"},C13:AG13)) and
=SUMPRODUCT(SUMIF(C12:AG12,{"A","F"},C13:AG13)) are identical.

However, I can't get the idea
SUMPRODUCT(--(C12:AG12,{"A","F"})*C13:AG13)
to work and I'm not sure I follow the logic?

I need help with a formula. If cells C12 through AG 12 have an "A"
or
an "F"
listed in any cell, I want to add and total the actual whole numbers
listed
in cells C13 through AG13 (that have A or F above them in the
column)totaling
them in cell in AH (where I merged the cells 11-13). Then in AI,
totaling
all the numbers in C13 through AG13 that have "T" listed in any cell
from C12
through AG 12. And so on. I have tried to figure this out from
reading the
help menu in Excel but I haven't been able to; can someone help.
