Hi Folks:
Using Excel 2003 - SP2
I have a simple 4 column table as below.
Model Number Type Series Qty

The Model Number is always a mix of letters and numbers and can vary in
length from 7 to 20 characters.
Model Numbers always start with 2 letters but can end with either a letter
or a number.
Certain model numbers can end with -N11, or -N12, etc., and what I would
like to count the total quanity of only those rows that end with -Nxx

I have tried
=SUM(IF(BE5:BH19="-N1*",BH5:BH19,1))
as well as
=SUM(IF(LEN(BE5:BE18)-LEN(SUBSTITUTE(BH5:BH18,"N1*",""))1,1,1))
with no luck

I have also tried variants of "N*", "-N1*" with no luck
The range is actually BE5 to BI78 - just using smaller range to try and get
proper formula.

Any help sincerely appreciated
Thanks
Steve
