Default REVISED Nested IF and Countif ?

Please look here for corrected column references:



Using Excel 2000:
I have one spreadsheet (titled "evalsecondlang") that contains training
stats. On another spreadsheet in the same workbook, I need to use the data on
evalsecondlang to calculate the number of courses taught by a particular
instructor, on a particular day, in either the morning or afternoon. In
Evalsecondlang, Column D contains the instructors' names. Column E contains
the day of the week. Column F contains either Morning or Afternoon. Column H
contains a list of numbers (e.g.; 1, 2, 3 and so on), e.g.;


D E F G H
Catherine Rousseau Monday Afternoon 3
Catherine Rousseau Monday Morning 2
Catherine Rousseau Monday Afternoon 3
Catherine Rousseau Monday Morning 1
Catherine Rousseau Monday Afternoon 3
Georges Farid Thursday Morning 4
Georges Farid Thursday Morning 3
Georges Farid Thursday Morning 4
Georges Farid Thursday Morning 3
Isabelle Poulin Thursday Morning 2
Isabelle Poulin Thursday Afternoon 1
Isabelle Poulin Thursday Afternoon 1


I want to create a nested IF statement which looks at column D and if the
instructor's name is there, then it looks at Column E and looks for "Monday",
and if that is there then it looks in Column F for "Morning" and if that is
there, then counts the number of "1's" in column H. I tried the following
and it doesn't work; it returns a blank:


=IF(evalsecondlang!D:D<"Catherine
Rousseau","",IF(evalsecondlang!E:E<"Monday","",IF (evalsecondlang!F:F="Morn-ing",COUNTIF(evalsecondlang!$H:$H,1)," ")))


This would indicate that the values I am looking for are not there, in the
sequence I want. But when I manually check the sheet, all the criteria is
there.


Can anyone please help me figure out what I am doing wrong?


Any and all help is greatly appreciated.
