CountIf Formula Help (2003)
I have been trying to work a formula to count cells based on certain
requirements. I am not sure if CountIf is the right formula to use.... I have named the following colums. N:N = Department U:U = Feature Z:Z = Calculation The formula I am trying to do is If Feature = path repair and Department = Concrete then count Calculation if it = Path Repair False. All the formulas I have tried to date have given me an error or an incorrect figure. I hope someone can help. Thanks |

CountIf Formula Help (2003)
Try this
=SUMPRODUCT(--(Department="Concrete"),--(Feature="Path Repair"),Calculation) You need to define a range of rows for Department, Feature, Calculation like A1:A100 (and NOT A:A as you seem to have done)... Whole column reference might work in Excel 2007 ------------------------------------- Pl. click ''Yes'' if this was helpful...

CountIf Formula Help (2003)
If you're using Excel 2003 then you can't use entire columns as range
references with this function. Use cells to hold your criteria: A1 = path repair B1 = Concrete C1 = Path Repair False =SUMPRODUCT(--(N1:N100=A1),--(U1:U100=B1),--(Z1:Z100=C1)) -- Biff Microsoft Excel MVP "cayang68" wrote in message ...

cols... Glad you got the solution through Biff... "cayang68" wrote: Sorry, This does not work. The value that came back was incorrect.
