Excel 2000 Counting occurrances
 

I'd like to count the number of specific responses to a specific question in
a questionnaire where I have 100 respondents and have the info on one excel
sheet
e.g
I'd like to be able to get the following information:
Question 1 had 42 responses of "Agree", 7 responses of "Neutral", 18
responses of "Disagree"...etc
Question 2 had "90" responses of "Strongly agree", 2 responses of "Disagree"

I'm struggling with the formulas
Can you help?

Maybe using the =countif() function:

=countif(a1:a99,"Agree")

Maybe...

=sumproduct(--(a1:a99=1),--(b1:b99="agree"))

Adjust the ranges to match--but you can't use whole columns.

=sumproduct() likes to work with numbers. The -- stuff changes trues and falses
to 1's and 0's.

Bob Phillips explains =sumproduct() in much more detail he
http://www.xldynamic.com/source/xld.SUMPRODUCT.html

And J.E. McGimpsey has some notes at:
