Thanks. Column BA is where the data is that has to be summed. I had a
thought and it seems to have worked. I went into my MS query and forced the
data that is ultimately in Column BA to appear as a number and now my formula
is working.

Go figure. Thanks for the quick response.

Is the count part of the formula working as written
SUMPRODUCT((BF35:BF1000="APPR ")*(BG35:BG1000="ANKLE "))
If not, you may want to use TRIM
SUMPRODUCT((TRIM(BF35:BF1000)="APPR")*(TRIM(BG35:B G1000)="ANKLE"))

If still a problem then you need to fix the numbers to be numbers. Let us
know.

I have a spreadsheet in which I need to sum a column based on two criteria.
The data is a MS query from an external file that is retrieved from a
website. The data always has two hidden spaces at the end of each cell.

The formula must look for the word "APPR " in column BF35:BF1000 and
"ANKLE
" in column BG35:BG1000. If those criteria are met, then the associated
data in column BA35:BA1000 must be added together (not counted as in using
the "Count" statement).

At first I used a sumproduct formula:

=SUMPRODUCT((BF35:BF1000="APPR ")*(BG35:BG1000="ANKLE ")*(BA35:BA1000))

but it looks like the data in column BA35:BA1000 may be text and not a
number (the cell is in a general format), so it looks like the SUM
statement
is ignoring them.

Does anyone have any ideas on how to get this summation to occur?

Thanks in advance.
