=SUMIF(A2:A34,"=F37",E2:E34) Why doesn't this formula work
 

Ranges A2:A34 contain dates. A date entered into F37 is intended to return
the sums that match from E2:E34. Why do I only return zero?

=SUMIF(A2:A34,"=F37",E2:E34) Why doesn't this formula work
 

Hi Jonas,

Try:
=SUMIF(A2:A34,F37,E2:E34)

Cheers

Because you are asking it to sum for the text "F37"

no need for the equal sign when all you want is equal to

=SUMIF(A2:A34,F37,E2:E34)

if you want greater than you would need

=SUMIF(A2:A34,""&F37,E2:E34)
