It should work

maybe you have trailing or leading spaces

=SUMPRODUCT(--(TRIM(A2:A20)="X"),--(TRIM(B2:B20)="Y"))

if that doesn't work you must have invisible html characters

Thanks but I get zero for the result, no error, but no count. I should
get
a result of 15 with the example data I'm using.

=SUMPRODUCT((Sheet1!A1:A30="xx")*(Sheet1!B1:B30="y y"))

I have a data sheet with data listing users and a product group. I

count the number of occurances where the user and group match. so on
the

!B:B =
"Y"". I have been trying countif and sumproduct with no luck. I can

sum of both individual matches but not when the combination matches.

Any ideas?
