Default Sumproduct

Yet you were quite happy to use it with SUMPRODUCT, which is effectively an
array formula, and the help makes the same statement about its dimensions,
albeit in different words.

Thank you Bob, you are a great help.

While your formula works, I am still a little uncomfortable about the use
of arrays of different dimensions (A1:A10 and C1:Z10) in a single array
formula. It is because according to the Excel XP help file, all arrays in
an array formula should have the same dimensions.

=SUM(IF(ISNUMBER(C1:Z10),IF((A1:A10=1)*(B1:B10=1), C1:Z10,0)))

as an array formula, commit with Ctrl-Shift-Enter

The formula works! Thank you both for your replies.

However, some of the cells in the region C1:Z10 include text but not
numbers. I would like to treat them as zeros, so I tried

=SUMPRODUCT((A1:A10=1)*(B1:B10=1)*(IF(ISNUMBER(C1: Z10), C1:Z10, 0))

However, the formula always returns zero. What can I do?

Hi,

I'm not sure I fully understand but maybe this

=SUMPRODUCT((A1:A10=1)*(B1:B10=1)*(C1:Z10))

I have a worksheet with data in the region C1:Z10.
I want to sum over everything in the region C1:Z10 which meets certain
criteria for columns A & B (more specifically: equal to 1).

Also, I don't want to create an extra column of sums for the region.
All I
want is a formula.

I know I can use
SumProduct((A1:A10=1)*(B1:B10=1), C1:C10 + D1:D10 +...) , but that's
too
clumsy.

What can I do? Suggestions are most welcome!
