SumProduct
 

I am trying to sum a column based on 2 sets of criteria, the first criteria
stipulates that the data being summed is <= a date, the second criteria
defines a name, when met it sums hours. The formula I used is:

=sumproduct((H:H<=m7),(Q:Q=A11),K:K)

Where m7 is a date & A11 is a name

It keep returning #NUM! please help

Hi,

In 2003 and earlier you can't reference the entire column for some
functions. change references like A:A to A1:A65000.

Hi,

I'd do your formula like this:-

=SUMPRODUCT((H1:H20<=M7)*(H1:H20<"")*(Q1:Q20=A11) *(K1:K20))

You can't use full columns unless in 2007 and include a check for empty
cells in column H because an empty cell will evaluate as TRUE for <=M7

I tried the formula the way you have shown it, now I get a #Value! error. I
am referencing another tab in the same workbook, would this cause problems?

This syntax will ignore text in K1:k10.

=sumproduct(--(H1:H10<=m7),--(Q1:Q10=A11),K1:K10)

Adjust the ranges to match--but you can't use whole columns (except in xl2007).

=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

And J.E. McGimpsey has some notes at:

Mike, your formula was correct, I miss-typed. Thank you so much for the help!
