Thank you. I modified it slightly for simplicity as:

=SUMPRODUCT(--(J2:J2000=E8),--(K2:K2000=E9),M2:M2000)

How would I employ that methodoligy in the following 2 formulas so that it
would:
countif, based on 2 criterion...

=COUNTIF(--((J2:J2000=E8),--(K2:K2000=E9)),E8)

and max(if, based on 2 criterion...

=MAX(IF(--((J2:J2000=E8),--(K2:K2000=E9)),M2:M2000)))

thx..

How would I incorporate 2 criterion into the SUMIF function? For example,
in
the following example I have the formula look to the A2:A2000 range for
the
value referrenced in C2 and sum only those numbers in range B2:B2000 that
meet this criteria. That's the easy part. How would I add another layer
of
criteria to the formula below in addition to that specified by "C2" - say,
EXACT(E2,VLOOKUP(E1,A2:B2000,2,FALSE))=TRUE?

=SUMIF(B2:B2000,E2,C2:C2000)

thx.
