You didn't say this was for use in conditional formatting.

So, this formula that I suggested would not work because you can't use array
constants in CF:

=SUMPRODUCT((AQ233:AQ2000=AQ232)*(AA233:AA2000,{"p 0","p1"}))

in case anyone wanted to know, seems to get a true-false, use e.g.:
=SUMPRODUCT((AQ152:AQ1228=AQ12)*((AA152:AA1228="p0 ")+(AA152:AQ1228="p1")))0

Yes, that will indeed work. Just a little FYI...

Excel will evaluate *any* number other than 0 as TRUE (0 evaluates as
FALSE). So, in the above you don't actually have to test for 0 but it does
make it easier to understand what was intended.

hi, trying to test 2 colums, of 1 column: has either of 2 criteria..

=SUMPRODUCT(--(AQ233:AQ2000=AQ232),OR(--(AA233:AA2000="p0"),--(AA233:AA2000="p1")))
not quite working

singularly, does work: (but need to test for "p0" or "p1"), thanks
- how to OR() a sumproduct..

=SUMPRODUCT(--(AQ233:AQ2000=AQ232),--(AA233:AA2000="p0"))0
