Hi

I think this is what you want:

=SUMPRODUCT(--($D$1:$D$65535=D1),--($B$1:$B$65535=B1))

I have a database built in Excel (about 3000 rows and 25 columns). The
database grows in rows daily. One of the columns (say D), lists street
addresses, another (sayB), lists the nature of the callout to that address
(three different callout reasons could occur). I have inserted a blank
column
and in this column I want to enter a formula (in each row) to give the
number
of times a callout has occurred for that address for its corresponding
reason. With just one criteria, that of how many times a callout to an
address has occurred the formula COUNTIF(D:D,Dline number) works. I am not
sure how to bring in the second criteria €“ I have been trying SUMPRODUCT
without success.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you to both Sheeloo and Per Jessen.
The formula from Sheeloo gives a #NUM error while the one from Per Jessen
works perfectly. Thanks very much I spent hours trying to get this right.
