In column C, I have a lead source, ie Bid, Yellow Pages, Website etc. In
column G, I have Sold, Open, Lost. I have tried to come up with a nestled
function that counts the instances of sold in column G for each source in C,
but with no luck. Any help?

thanks much,

Andy

=SUMPRODUCT(--(C2:C200="Bid"),--(G2:G200="Sold"))

etc.

Note, SUMPRODUCT uses explicit ranges, not whole columns.

I am trying to return a count, and this formula gives me true/false.

To add more info, I am making a summary table for the years sales and want
to know our closing percentage for each type. I'm not to sure how to
describe this differently.

No, it gives you a count as you asked for.

Try it and then tell me it doesn't do what you want.

Bob-

I tried formatting each column to be text, thinking that might be altering
the results. That did not change anything. The formula result still goes
between true and false, depending on how I alter the vertical range. I'm
thinking that intermittent numbers in column G between monthly data sets may
be goofing it up. I will try to reset and post back.

thanks,

Andy

I moved the monthly numeric data sets from G and it worked. Thanks for your
help Bob.

That really should not have caused a problem, they should just not get
counted.
