Default Adding data in columns based on criteria in more than one column..

I asked this before but my explanation was labored and the answer didn't
address my needs. Here is a fuller, and I hope, clearer explanation. How do
add the figures in one or more columns based on criteria in more than one
column? For example assume the following worksheet:

A B C D E

1 aaa n n n
2 bbb zzz n n n
3 aaa yyy n n n
4 ccc xxx n n n
5 aaa www n n n
6 bbb n n n
7 bbb zzz n n n
8 ccc n n n

The real worksheet has hundreds of rows. I would like to add up the n's in
the rows that have a specific criteria, e.g. aaa in Column A and bull
(blanks) in Column B. I would also like to add up the n's in the rows that
have a specific criteria in Column A and anything in Column B (not null or
blank), e.g. aaa and yyy with the aaa and www. There are too many different
strings in Column B to use specific criteria. Any help would br greatly
appreciated. Setts
