=SUMPRODUCT((Branch="London")+(Branch="New York"),--(ANIU<"X"))

Hi All,

Would appreciate any help with this one.

I have a table of date with a column range named Branch which contains
either London, New York, Paris or Milan.
I have another column range named ANIU which contains either a blank or an
"X" which refers to accounts which are no longer in use.

I want a formula to count the number of accounts in both London and New York
but I want to exclude accounts that are no longer in use in London or New
York.

So far I have got:

=COUNTIF(Branch,"=London")+COUNTIF(Branch,"=New York")-countif(ANIU,"=X")

But this obvously will substract accounts not in use from the Paris and
Milan branches. Can anyone help please,

Cheers,

Andrew
