Default Create a function to add one to the count

Bernard and David, you have helped me so much, THANKS, you both pointed me in
the right direction, the article that Bernard linked me to gave me what I was
looking for to use with the 2003 version I have at work. Now I know how to do
it with both the 2003 version at work and the 2007 version I have at home.
I ended up using variations of this formula to get what I wanted, it may not
be pretty but it works: this for LR's total of attempts
=SUM(IF(D2:D42="Y",IF(E2:E42="lr",1,0),0)+IF(D2:D4 2="N",IF(E2:E42="LR",1,0),0))

Thanks again!!!

OK, this is probably an easy one, but I can't figure it out. We (two of us)
keep a list of patients that we put PICCs in, I want to have a small table
automatically total the number Attempts, not attempts, and successful
placements.
so basically, if D3=Y and E3=LR then add one to the number in Attempts (J4)
and successful placements (J6).
