Try

=SUMPRODUCT(--(B1:B535),--(B1:B5<40))

Hope this helps,

I tried to write a formula to count how often the value of a range of cells
falls between two numbers. for example in the chart below:

row value
1 25
2 27
3 36
4 37
5 42

I tried the formula =countif(a1:a5,and(35,<40)) and my result was "0" when
it should be "2".

Can anyone help correct my formula?

thanks
