countif for two ranges?
Example:
I'd like to use COUNTIF to alnalyze the following two ranges and come up with a formula that would spit out how many times joe is green. And then modify it for joe meeting a blue condition, mary meeting green, blue, etc. Is this possible? From what I've been reading COUNTIF can't compare two ranges? Is a macro the only way to go here? Any help would be appreciated. column A Column B joe green mary green joe blue joe blue joe green mary blue joe green mary green mary green |

=SUMPRODUCT(--(A1:A100="Joe"),--(B1:B100="green")
