You haven't said whether or not you entered that as an array formula, but in
either case I don't think that it'll work
Why not try =SUMPRODUCT((C3:C207="CA")*(I3:I207="OG")) ?

Hello, I have put the following formula in to try and add figures together
but only when a certain word in in the first column. Can anyone see my
mistake?

=IF(C3:C207="CA",(COUNTIF(I3:I207,"OG")))

I am not a bright chicken so if you can help please make it as easy if
possible.

Many Thanks
