Hlookup and sum noncontiguous numbers
I need help with the following problem: I was using the nested if function,
but due to limitation of seven levels only, i need to find alternative solution to my problem. I want to be able to use hlookup combined with the sum function to add up noncontiguous numbers. Here's my formula to extract and sum data for June - fringe: z1=jun =hlookup(z1,a1:g8,sum(2,6),false)) i want to add up fringe for month of june = 450 currently this formula yield = 0 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 1 jan feb mar apr may jun jul aug...dec 2Salary FT 500 550 600 500 550 600 500 550 3Hourly FT 400 450 500 400 450 500 400 450 4Fringe FT 300 350 400 300 350 400 300 350 5 6Salary PT 250 250 250 250 250 250 250 250 7Hourly PT 200 200 200 200 200 200 200 200 8Fringe PT 150 150 152 141 90 50 85 125 |

Hlookup and sum noncontiguous numbers
One idea to get there ..
Illustrated in this sample: http://www.freefilehosting.net/download/3i9fj sum discontiguous via lookup month n partial text.xls In B1 across are the months in text; jan, feb,... In A2:A8 are the text: Salary FT, Hourly FT, etc Assume Inputs for the month (eg: jun) are selected in Y1 Inputs for partial text in col A (eg: Fringe) are selected in Y2 Then in Y3: =IF(COUNTA(Y1:Y2)<2,"",SUMPRODUCT(--(ISNUMBER(SEARCH(Y2,$A$2:$A$8))),OFFSET($A$2:$A$8, ,MATCH(Y1,$B$1:$J$1,0)))) will return the required results -- Max Singapore http://savefile.com/projects/236895 xdemechanik --- "Amy" wrote: I need help with the following problem: I was using the nested if function, but due to limitation of seven levels only, i need to find alternative solution to my problem.
