Default Help with SUMPRODUCT Function

Thank you both......that did it ! (For some reason, I think assumed the
"comparison quotes" were needed since the value wasn't an actual #.......I
didn't even think to take boolean logic/values into account :( !).

Thanks again to you both for your help (and quick replies) --- I appreciate
it !

I'm guessing that col_AB contains boolean values.
Try this:
=SUMPRODUCT((Data!K1:K3000="AL")*(Data!AB1:AB3000= TRUE))

Does that help?

Hello -
I'm in need of some help. I need to count the number of occurences (rows)
in a Worksheet, based on two criteria (column entries) in that row.

I've been trying to use the 'SUMPRODUCT' function, but keep winding up
with
a value of 0 (although I know the answer should be 0, when I count
portions
manually). The formula I've been trying to use is below:

=SUMPRODUCT((Data!K1:K3000="AL")*(Data!AB1:AB3000= "TRUE"))

Where "Data!" is the tab the information is on (the report/detail I'm
attempting to compile in on another tab), column K identifies the state
(in
this case AL), and column AB is a flag for whether or not a product has
been
included (the only values are True or False).

I've tried everything I can think of, but still can't seem to get this to
work. Any help would be most appreciated !

Thanks for your help,
- Matt
