Default Counting cells that "contain" a text string

I used the second option and it worked.

Thanks, Dave

Perhaps this?

=SUMPRODUCT(('2007'!$I$2:$I$300="Quality")*('2007' !$E$2:$E$300="Improvement")*(('2007'!$D2:$D$300="D ev")+('2007'!$D2:$D$300="Dev/RFC")))
or...
=SUMPRODUCT(('2007'!$I$2:$I$300="Quality")*('2007' !$E$2:$E$300="Improvement")*(('2007'!$D2:$D$300={" Dev","Dev/RFC"})))

Does that help?

How can I make this formula count both "Dev" AND "Dev/RFC" in a column
range?
I can't seem to get the wildcard variations (~, &, *) to work with this!

=SUMPRODUCT(('2007'!$I$2:$I$300="Quality")*('2007' !$E$2:$E$300="Improvement")*('2007'!$D2:$D$300="De v"))

Thanks, Dave
