Thanks! Where can I find info on why a horizontal (row) data set must be
tested against a vertical array? (Yes, I'm new to this.)

You have to make the array constant a vertical array. Using commas makes
it
a horizontal array. Replace the commas with semicolons:

=SUMPRODUCT(--(A10:U10={"P";"B";"S";"V";"H";"PBSVH"}))

The following formula works on a column range (A1:A40), but not on a
row
range (A10:U10). What have I missd?

=SUMPRODUCT(--(A10:U10={"P","B","S","V","H","PBSVH"}))
