Default Further Excel help for =SUMPRODUCT((C$1:E$8=G1)*B$1:B$8)

HI Max, The names that are assigned to Team A or Team B roster can change .
Is it possible for the formulae to lokk across bothe rosters for the staff
names to populate the Roster hours? Rather than running the formulae across a
specific set can it be run across both?

The formula is essentially an index/match with an ISNA error trap to return
blanks: "" for any unmatched cases, viz.:
=IF(ISNA(MATCH(...)),"",INDEX(...,MATCH(...)))

The OFFSET part of it within the MATCH basically grabs the correct col array
in each team's roster sheet, via matching the dates in B3:F3 against the
dates in the team's roster sheet (eg in C3:G3 in sheet: Team A Roster). The
col array returned by the OFFSET is then used as the reference array in the
MATCH, to match the individual names in A10:A13. The return from MATCH is
then used to return the corresponding value within the indexed range.

Max, Would it be too much trouble to write in plain english what each part of
the command/formulae is doing? I do not even know what ISNA is?

If not no probs I will keep at it.
Cheers
