Well, your subject line says you're getting a result of 0 and your post
says
you're getting a result of #N/A.
If the result is 0:
-Values < 0?
(Data!$D$2:$D$20000)
It may be due to use of the wrong operator. or < ?
If the result is #N/A:
There's nothing wrong with the formula itself. Are there any #N/A errors
in
either of the ranges?

Hi all -
My sumproduct formula is measuring 2 criteria
-Values < 0?
-Period = P1
But it is returning a #N/A error
Can anyone give me a nudge in the right direction?
=SUMPRODUCT((Data!$D$2:$D$20000)*(Data!$E$2:$E$20 00=Summary!$K$2))/
1000
Thanks.
Best regards,

Apolgies on confusion with subect and body
Originally I was getting #N/A, then relized the second argument in the
formula did not use $2000 rows only $45 rows
I change to $2000 and now I receive a 0

The data has been copy pasted to Excel from HTML then
data..text..columns
I also ran a macro to clean all extra spaces and another macro to
bring any trailing negatives to the fron of the number
I tested the value column with =ISNUMBER(). All returned TRUE.
I then picked a single period of the dataset and switched to a very
simple sumif formula:
=SUMIF(Data!$D$24:$D$45,"<0")/1000
This returned a value of 2.0 (K's)
I then manually added all items in the range < 0.
I received a result of $2,011.65.
All that said, I believe the data is good to go.
Has to be something with the formula
Best regards,

The formula is syntactically correct so it has to be a data problem.
If the data in Data!$D$2:$D$2000 all checked out OK to be numbers then what
about the other range Data!$E$2:$E$2000 and Summary!$K$2.
You said you ran a macro to "clean all extra spaces". Does that macro clean
the char 160 non breaking spaces commonly found in html?
There is a macro at this location that cleans those char 160's:
