Using Excel 2003. Thanks in advance for the formula to
COUNTIF(F2:F2121,"ABC"" AND (L2:L2121 = "DEF"))?? How can you compare
row-by-row using an and condition vs. going thru the entire column? In other
words, does a row have ABD and DEF simulataneously in 2 separate columns vs
the entire column being evaluated. I have about 2K columns for which each
row must be evaluated 1 by 1 with this and condition.

Thanks very much!

Since the count can only be zero or one, this will do the same as the
COUNT if ...

=(F2="ABC")*(L2="DEF")

or ...

=IF(AND(F2="ABC",L2="DEF"),1,0)

Just copy it down the column where you want the results.

BTW, the syntax in the COUNTIF you gave is incorrect. In fact, I
don't see how it can possibly be made to work, even the way you say it
works.

Thank you Tom for answering my question on a row by row comparison; I will
see what I can do w/it. I was unable

to open the email w/out going into €œOffice Online€� specifically, and hence
my delayed thank you note.

I hope you wont mind if I contact you again w/a question every now and then..

Thanks once again; I really appreciate your time and help!
