how do i count the number of times criteria appears in a worksheet
 

what formula should i use when i have to count the number of times a cell
criteria appears on a spreadsheet, only when another criteria is present.
ie if "1407" appears in cells L3:L450, only count each of those cells if
"1201" appears in column B for the same row

how do i count the number of times criteria appears in a worksheet
 

Try:

=SUMPRODUCT(--(L3:L450 = 1407),--(B3:B450 = 1201))

Regards,
Greg
