Count IF
I want to count text/numbers in a range of cells based on a certain criteria
only the informaiton in another column (same row) meets specific criteria. |
Count IF
You want to COUNT or SUM?
See COUNTIF and SUMIF in Help, then coma back with more questions Also have a look at SUMPRODUCT http://www.xldynamic.com/source/xld.SUMPRODUCT.html best wishes -- Bernard Liengme Microsoft Excel MVP http://people.stfx.ca/bliengme "Romanli" wrote in message ...

Count IF
=IF(Installed!J151:J158,US,COUNTIF(Installed!N151: N158,green))
If item in one column =US, then count if item in second column =Green. This is what I want (in theory anyway), but the way I have typed it gives me a value error. I definly only want counts, becuase it is all text. "Bernard Liengme" wrote: You want to COUNT or SUM?

Count IF
=sumproduct(--(installed!j151:j158="US"),--(installed!n151:n158="Green"))
Adjust the ranges to match--but you can't use whole columns. =sumproduct() likes to work with numbers. The -- stuff changes trues and falses to 1's and 0's. Bob Phillips explains =sumproduct() in much more detail he http://www.xldynamic.com/source/xld.SUMPRODUCT.html And J.E. McGimpsey has some notes at: http://mcgimpsey.com/excel/formulae/doubleneg.html If you're using xl2007, you may want to look at =countifs().
