Counting using multiple criteria
You could use a combination of countifs:-
=COUNTIF(A1:A100,"<100")-COUNTIF(A1:A100,"<75") All cells in the range a1 - a100 75 <100 Mike "Rodman" wrote: I am using Excel 2003 and I would like to count the number of cells within a range thar meet multiple criteria.

Counting using multiple criteria
Let me be a bit more specific.
A spreadsheet contains the following data: A B C Jan 2006 Complete Jan 2006 Complete Feb 2006 Hold Dec 2006 In Progress .. .. .. Jan 2007 Complete Jan 2007 Hold I would like a count (for example): of the number Complete in Jan of 2006. (i.e., if month (col A) is Jan and year (Col B) is 2006 and status (Col C) is complete then increment a counter - like ANDing 3 countif functions [i.e., countif(a2:a50,"Jan") and countif(b2:b50, "2006") and countif(c2:c50,"Complete")]. I hope this example bettter expreses the function I am trying to perform.

See Bob's reply:
=SUMPRODUCT(--(A2:A100="Jan"),--(B2:B100=2006),--(C2:C100="Complete")) Assumes "Jan" is TEXT not date format "Rodman" wrote: Let me be a bit more specific.

Counting using multiple criteria
Thanks for the help/information... It worked like a charm!!! However
(...here comes the rub...) when I try to use the SUMPRODUCT formula using data that has been extracted from other fields, it does not seem to work. Example: A B C D 11 Jan 2006 Jan 2006 Complete 12 Jan 2006 Jan 2006 Complete Column B was created using the formula: =IF(LEN(A1)=11, MID(A1,4,3), MID(A1,5,3)) Column C was created using the formula: =RIGHT(A2,4) When I use the following SUMPRODUCT formula, =SUMPRODUCT(--(B1:B2="Jul"),--(C1:C2=2006),--(D1:D2="Complete")) I get a result of 0, it should be 2. What am I doing wrong???

Counting using multiple criteria
Thanks for all of you help!
It turns out the date field was formatted as text. When formatted as date and using the suggestion from Bob Phillips: =SUMPRODUCT(--(MONTH(A1:A2)=7),--(YEAR(A1:A2)=2006),--(D1:D2="Complete")) everything worked great!

Fantastic! I was looking for this same solution. While I do NOT understand
how it works, it works. I had this issue resolve in 5 minutes with Excel 2007, but we use 2003 at work, so this helps out a lot. Still don't understand how the '--' works..... :) Thanks.
