Missed a - again :-(
Use =SUMPRODUCT(--(A2:A100=A2),--(B2:B100=B2),--(C2:C100=C2),--(D2:D100=1)) instead of =SUMPRODUCT(--(A2:A100=A2),--(B2:B100=B2),--(C2:C100=C2),-(D2:D100=1)) which will give you a negative count... due to single - in -(D2:D100=1) "Sheeloo" wrote: Now I understand what you want.. You need to add a column to mark 1,2,3, against each entry in Col A - 1 against first occurence, two against the second and so on... In your example enter this in E2 =COUNTIF($A$2:A2,A2) and copy down... Starting at row 2 assuming headers in row 1 Now use SUMPRODUCT in F1 like this =SUMPRODUCT(--(A2:A100=A2),--(B2:B100=B2),--(C2:C100=C2),-(D2:D100=1)) "blswes" wrote: Here would be a basic example: Col. A Col. B Col. C Col. D Tree 40 Yes 1 Tree 45 Yes 1 Tree 45 Yes 1 Leaf 43 Yes 1 Leaf 44 Yes 1 What I'm looking for is unique entries that satisfy my criteria. So if I want unique Col. A entries that are 35 (Col. B), that have "Yes" (Col. C), and that equal 1 (Col. D), the answer is 2. But if I'm unable to get unique Col. A entries, then the answer with Sumproduct would be 5, which is not what I'm seeking. Does that help? Thanks in advance. "Sheeloo" wrote: Not sure what you want... Pl. provide sample data. "blswes" wrote: Hmmmm, doesn't seem to be returning the results I want. If I have 14 text entries of "House" that all meet the criteria that I set, I want the result to be 1 (unique entry). So I'm looking for a way (like with Sumproduct) to set multiple criteria for Col. A but also to identify how many unique entries satisfy those criteria since there are many duplicates. Does that help?

You can add more terms for other columns... "blswes" wrote: I am looking to count the number of unique text cells in Col. A that meet several criteria across Col. B-F. And I'll want to do this calculation numerous times with changing criteria (to fill out a large table). Any ideas? |
