COUNTIF
I have this spreadsheet that I created to count activities for the day. I
added a drop down for specific choices so I can graph the results for example Item A, Item B, and Item C. There is a total of the number of Item A's on another sheet using the COUNTIF. How can I count numbers next to the Item A or Item B? Item A listed 10 times will display the number 10 using the CountIF. If Item A has a 2 next to it, then I will need to display 20. Is there a way of doing this? |

COUNTIF
Will each item have the exact same value on each row?
What/where is your list of values for each item? If you have a datalist with these values, you can incorporate a Vlookup() function to multiply it's return by the Countif() function. -- Regards, RD --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Please keep all correspondence within the NewsGroup, so all may benefit ! --------------------------------------------------------------------------- "Mac" wrote in message ...

No, each item will not always have the exact same value.
Sheet 5 Colume 3 Column 4 Item A .....2 Item A .....3 Item B......1 Item B......5 Item A......1 Sheet 2 col 2 labeled Item A =countif(sheet5!F3:F100,"Item A") the above will return 3 for Item A col 3 labeled total number total number of Item A's in col 4 on Sheet 5 I would like for it to display 6.

That's easy!
In column next to the Countif(), use Sumif(). =Sumif(sheet5!F3:F100,"Item A",sheet5!G3:G100) -- HTH, RD --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Please keep all correspondence within the NewsGroup, so all may benefit ! --------------------------------------------------------------------------- "Mac" wrote in message ...
