Count cells w/values in column if the data in column a matches cri
 

I need a formula that counts the number of cell that contain data in column B
as long as the corresponding cell in column A matches a given criteria.

Count cells w/values in column if the data in column a matchescri
 

Try this:

=SUMPRODUCT((A1:A100=D1)*(B1:B100<""))

where D1 contains the criteria.

Hope this helps.

Hi,

=SUMPRODUCT(--(A:A=C1),--(B:B<""))

Here the criteria is in C1.

That will only work in XL2007 (earlier versions need delimited column ranges
for its arrays). I think I would use delimited ranges even in XL2007
however... not sure how efficient it would be to let array calculations
extend across one million plus rows.

Thank you, however this is not working. Let me try and give more detail.

I am using excel 2000

Data is stored in one worksheet named Jan, in another workshet I have the
summaries and that is where I need to enter the formula.

Worksheet Jan has column F with sales people initials, and columb O with
sales numbers of accessories. In the summary sheet I need to know: Of all
the sales a sales person had, how many had also accessories sales.

Based on your reply, I tried the following, but am getting an error.

I appreciate the help.................................

Thank you
