I have the following data:

w 1
w 1
w 2
w 1
w 1
c 3
w 2
c 1
c 1
w 3
c 1

I need a formula that calculates how many of the w's have numbers greater
than 1. I was trying this formula: sumproduct(--(C2:C12="W"),--(D2:D121))
but it doesn't work.

Your formula works for me. Are you sure that the *numbers* are real nunbers
and not text?

Try:

=ISTEXT(D2) and copy down to see what you get.

Use lowercase w

Try this

=SUMPRODUCT((C2:C12="w")*(D2:D121))

Use a pivot table with w,c on rows and 1,2 on columns and in data
value
Post that you can select w on row side and unselect 1 on column side
to get the exact count

You may have spaces after the letters in C2:C12. "w " is not equal to "w".

Use lowercase w

To an XL formula W and w are equal. ="W"="w" returns TRUE

As a followup, put this formula in E2: =LEN(C2) and drag down through E12.
If you have only 1 character in each cell in C2:C12, the formula will
compute 1 as the answer. 2 if you have character + space, 3 if you have
character + space + space etc.
