Lars,
Your solution works fine and I will have to study this a little more
to get fully understand it.

A bit shorter, but maybe not so clear

=SUMPRODUCT((1-ISERR(FIND({200,300,500},LEFT(B4:B14,3))))*(F4:F14 ))

or

=SUM((1-ISERR(FIND({200,300,500},LEFT(B4:B14,3))))*(F4:F14 ))

entered as an array formula (CTRL+SHIFT+ENTER)

Hi,

A bit shorter

=SUMPRODUCT(--(ISNUMBER(SEARCH({200,300,500},LEFT(B4:B14,3)))*(F 4:F14)))

To All,
I was wondering if anyone has a way to shorten the following formula
or is what I have the best way? I tried using Index and Match, but
could not figure out how to do it.

SUMPRODUCT(--(LEFT($B$4:$B$14,3)="200"),$F$4:$F$14)+SUMPRODUCT(--(LEFT($B$4:$B$14,3)="300"),$F$4:$F$14)+SUMPRODUCT(--(LEFT($B$4:$B$14,3)="500"),$F$4:$F$14)

Thanks
Harry
