VLOOKUP
If I understand it right, I cannot do this:
={SUM(VLOOKUP(A1:A4,Sheet2!$A$1:$B$8,2,FALSE))} To get the sum of points in this example Sheet 1 A B etc... 1 1 2 1 3 1 4 1 5 this is where I put the formula hoping to get 40 (10 + 10 + 10 + 10) Sheet 2 A B C etc... 1 1 10 2 2 8 3 3 6 4 4 4 5 5 3 6 6 2 7 7 1 8 8 0 If I used the formula =VLOOKUP(A1,Sheet2!$A$1:$B$8,2,FALSE) in Sheet1, B1, I would get 10 as expected. I could then fill B2:B4 and sum the values, but I want the total in one cell. There must be a way to do it. I saw a solution posted here (http://groups.google.com/group/micro...ksheet.functio ns/browse_thread/thread/af784678f7b56f38) that works - but not for repeated values. Can someone point me in the right direction? Thanks, Andrew -- Posted via a free Usenet account from http://www.teranews.com |

: =SUMPRODUCT((Sheet2!A1:A8=N(INDIRECT({"A1","A2","A 3","A4"})))*Sheet2!B1 :B8) Thanks! That did the trick. Why can't I use CELL("address",A1:A4) instead of the array constant? -- Posted via a free Usenet account from http://www.teranews.com |

VLOOKUP
Try this in A5 of Sheet1:
=SUMPRODUCT((Sheet2!A1:A8=N(INDIRECT({"A1","A2","A 3","A4"})))*Sheet2!B1:B8) -- HTH, RD --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Please keep all correspondence within the NewsGroup, so all may benefit ! --------------------------------------------------------------------------- "Andrew" wrote in message ...

VLOOKUP
Why can't I use CELL("address",A1:A4) instead of the array constant?
Because CELL doesn't work on arrays. Another one: =SUMPRODUCT(COUNTIF(A1:A4,Sheet2!A1:A8),Sheet2!B1: B8) -- Biff Microsoft Excel MVP "Andrew Clark" wrote in message ...
