Number of cells that have same values
Assume your Columns are A and B, and your rows go down to 20, Array enter
this formula (CTRL+SHIFT+ENTER): =SUM(IF(A1:A20=B1:B20,1,0)) Change the column and row references to fit your data. -- Regards, Dave "Lingyan Hu" wrote: Imagine there are two columns of cells, each row of two cells are corresponding to each other.

=SUMPRODUCT(--(A2:A20=B2:B20),--(A2:A20<""),--(B2:B20<""))

Number of cells that have same values
Shall I push (CTRL+SHIFT+ENTER) at the same time while entering the formula?
I tried, but it doesn't seem to work.

Type this formula in the formula bar, and instead of just pushing "Enter" to
commit it, push CTRL+SHIFT+ENTER. Also, after looking at Bob's post I realize my formula isn't taking into account blank cells, change to the following to fix (or just use Bob's formula): =SUM(IF(((A1:A20=B1:B20)*(A1:A20<"")*(B1:B20<"") ),1,0)) -- Regards, Dave "Lingyan Hu" wrote: Shall I push (CTRL+SHIFT+ENTER) at the same time while entering the formula?

Dave,
Your version can do away with the IF test =SUM(((A1:A20=B1:B20)*(A1:A20<"")*(B1:B20<""))) -- HTH RP (remove nothere from the email address if mailing direct) "David Billigmeier" wrote in message ...

Very true, there are many ways to word it.
