Try this...

A1:A10 = center type
B1:B10 = in operation = 1 or 0
C1:C10 = rental deposit

=SUMPRODUCT(--(A1:A10="primary"),B1:B10,C1:C10)

There are 3 columns in excel. First column represents type of centre
(Primary, Secondary and teritiary). Second column represents whether the
centre is in operation or not. (if it is in operation then 1 and if it is
not
in operation then it is 0). Third column represent rental deposit for each
type of centre.

So i need a formula which checks whether the centre is in operation or not
and then if it is in operation then check the type of centre and then
multiply with the rental deposit depending on type of centre.

Hope this clear. let me know if it is still not clear.

Hi,
I have type of centres (Primary, secondary, teritiary) in one column
and
another column with 1 or 0. I want a command that says Multiply centres
which
has '1' in the other column. How do i do it?

Assuming you have a column of true Excel dates...

=SUMPRODUCT(--(A1:A100="Primary"),--(TEXT(B1:B100,"myyyy")="42008"))

Or:

=SUMPRODUCT(--(A1:A100="Primary"),--(MONTH(B1:B100)=4),--(YEAR(B1:B100)=2008))

Hi,
I tried what you said and it doesnt seem to work. In one column i
have
type
of centre (whether centre is Tertiary, secondary or Primary) and in
another
column i have operation start date (Month when operation started).
If i
want
to know how many primary centres were started in April 2008 how do i
go
about
doing it?

When i use SUMPRODUCT function like how you have given below, i get
the
count of Primary centres but i do not get the count of primary
centres
started in April 2008.

Guessing xlfn = Excel Function.

It sounds like although Excel was nice enough to leave the formula
in,
it
wasn't actually calculating. It was just able to remember what
value
it
had
calculated when you had it open in 2007.

As there is no COUNTIFS in 2003, as soon as you asked it to
recalculate
(by
adding a number) XL gave up on trying to figure it out. This is
similar
to
what happenes whne you use a function from an Add-in, but don't
have
the
add-in activated.

A recommendation would be to replace your COUNTIFS with SUMPRODUCT.
Example:
=SUMPRODUCT(((A1:A100="Tom")+(A1:A100="Bob"))*1)
would give you a count of all the Tom and Bob's in a1:a100

I created some countifs in 2007, saved it down to 2003. When
opened
in
2003,
in front of the countifs is: =_xlfn.COUNTIFS

It showed correctly in 2003, however, when I added another number
in
the
range that the countifs were counting, an #name? error was
produced,
and it
couldn't be undone. Is there any way around this ? Though I'm
still
impressed
that 2003 was able to keep the 2007 results to begin with. What
does
xlfn
mean ?

Thanks,


Steve
