Hi all

I need to count data that sometimes includes #VALUE! and cannot work it out

This is what I am using but now and again the data includes #VALUE and due
to tha amount of lookups I cannot ommit this from the data that is been
counted

{=SUM(($M$1:$M$357=$B400)*($F$1:$F$357=0.02))}

Try this array formula** :

=COUNT(IF(F1:F357=0.02,IF(M1:M357=B400,1)))

** array formulas need to be entered using the key combination of
CTRL,SHIFT,ENTER (not just ENTER). Hold down both the CTRL key and the SHIFT
key then hit ENTER.

Try it like this, array-entered (press CTRL+SHIFT+ENTER to confirm the
formula):
=SUM(IF(ISNUMBER(($M$1:$M$357=$B400)*($F$1:$F$357 =0.02)),($M$1:$M$357=$B400)*($F$1:$F$357=0.02)))
