SUMPRODUCT Help please
 

Im using this formula: =SUMPRODUCT(--(C6:C403="??"),--(D6:D403="??"))
which works well, however where the "??" are placed i would like to
enter a cell location i.e "A6" which will use whatever text is in the
cell to perform the sum. Is this possible? it would save alot of time
rather than changing criteria in the formula everytime

Help is much appreciated

SUMPRODUCT Help please
 

You can reference cells in SUMPRODUCT. For instance:

=SUMPRODUCT(--(C6:C403=A6),--(D6:D403=A6))

Isnt $C1:$C65536 and $D1:$D65536 a column anyway?

What i want to do is copy the formula into alot of decending cells, but
every time i copy down a cell the value increases by one which is what i
WANT. However the range also increase by one which i DONT want. Any
ideas??

SUMPRODUCT Help please
 

I tried a SUMPRODUCT using C1:C65536 and it converted to C:C and gave me an
error. I then tried C1:C65535 and it worked. Why can you do the whole row,
but I can't?

That's because I can't either :-(

I didn't check that C1 to C65536 converted to C:C. What you did is right
.... you can't use SUMPRODUCT on a full column.

Yes, it is ... use $C1:$C65535 as Sloth suggested

Make the range absolute so that it doesn't increment

$C$1:$C$65535 and $D$1:$CD65535
