If you could follow that...
I have a number of columns of information for any given row. I would like to
set up a sheet that will sum Column C for all rows IF Column A = {a given
value} AND Column D = {a different given value}. I may even need to throw in
that Column B = {another given value}. Can I do this and how?

I've run across something about VLOOKUP, but I'm not sure how to make that
work. I'm primarily a CAD operator making brief forays into Excel, and I keep
thinking it has got to be easier than all the manual sorting I'm currently
doing.

I'm using Excel 2003 (on Windows XP SP2)

Assign your "given values" to particular cells, so they can easily be
changed, without having to revise the formula itself (E1, E2).


=Sumproduct((A1:A100=E1)*(D1:D100=E2)*C1:C100)

To add other criteria, simply add another argument:

=Sumproduct((A1:A100=E1)*(D1:D100=E2)*(B1:B100=E3) *C1:C100)

All ranges should be the same size, and you *cannot* use entire columns
(A:A - B:B)

I'm using Excel 2003 (on Windows XP SP2)

=SUMPRODUCT((Xewks!A1:A425=A10)*(Xewks!E1:E425=5)* (Xewks!D1:D425="B
Borrow")*Xewks!B1:B425)

Here is what I put in for my SUMPRODUCT formula, but it just gives me a
#VALUE error. Closer than what I was doing before, but still not working - so
I must be misunderstanding something.

Thank you for your help!

You probably have values in B1 to B425 that are *not* true XL recognized
numbers!

Could B1 be a text header?

That was it!
(Actually, everything in Row 1 is a text header)
Thank you so much!!

You're welcome, and thank you for the feed-back.

Sorry, I meant cond2 and cond3 are never both true for the same sumcolumnvalue.

Is that a good description?

Yes

{SUM(AND(cond1, cond2)*sumcolumnvalue)}

AND returns a single result where you need an array of results.

It sounds like you want an OR comparison: sum C if A = x *or* D = y.

Try one of these:

=SUMPRODUCT(--((A1:A10="x")+(D1:D10="y")0),C1:C10)

=SUMPRODUCT(SIGN((A1:A10="x")+(D1:D10="y")),C1:C10 )

I am trying to sum a column of both negative and positive numbers on another
worksheet based on two conditions. I have tried to construct an array that
would =Sum(if((A2:A278,="2000")*(M2:M278,="0"),M2:M278) )

Should that not sum the column M2:M278 positive integers based on the
criteria that all rows in A2:A278 are equal to "2000".???

To exclude negative values from the sum...

Works in any "modern" version of Excel:

=SUMPRODUCT(--(A2:A278=2000),--(M2:M2780),M2:M278)

If you're using Excel 2007:

=SUMIFS(M2:M278,A2:A278,2000,M2:M278,"0")

This is an array formula CTRL + SHIFT + ENTER
