Hello, if anyone can, please help.

I'm trying to nest sumif so as to check one column and if it is true, check
another column and sum the total as per usual.

ie

if (A1:A6) equals "Blue" then sumif(B1:B6,F1:F6,C1:C6)

Could anyone help me out here?? {:-{


Kind regards
Jeff

Hi

bit confused by your question and example SUMIF formula but if you mean
.........A................B.............C
1.....Blue...........North..........5
2.....Red...........North..........3
3.....Blue...........South..........2
4.....Blue..........North..........10

and you want to sum column C where the value in A is blue and the value in B
is north then use:

=SUMPRODUCT(--(A1:A4="Blue"),--(B1:B4="North"),C1:C4)

for more details on using the SUMPRODUCT function

Julie,

He might mean

=SUMPRODUCT(--(A1:A6="Blue"),--(B1:B6=F1:F6),C1:C6)

Jeff,

If so, you can also do it with

=IF(A1:A6="Blue",SUMIF(B1:B6,F1:F6,C1:C6))

which is basically what you said, and is an array formula, so commit with
Ctrl-Shift-Enter.

I don't think these two formulas,

=SUMPRODUCT(--(A1:A6="Blue"),--(B1:B6=F1:F6),C1:C6)

and

{=IF(A1:A6="Blue",SUMIF(B1:B6,F1:F6,C1:C6))},

express equivalent computations. Try them on:

A1:C6 houses:

{"blue","a",5;"blue","a",4;"red","b",3;"blue","a", 2;"blue","a",1;"red","b",2}

F1:F6 houses:

{"a";"b";"c";"d";"e";"f"}
