Need help.
I need to add an AND command to the following formula and can't seem to figure it out. =SUM(IF(ISNUMBER(H3:N3),IF(ISNUMBER(H3:N3),IF(H3:N 3=G3,1,0)))) and B3 = "S" The formula also needs to check if b3 is = to "S" Any assistance would be geatly appreciated. Warmest Regards, John |

Friends,
These formulas: =SUMPRODUCT((ISNUMBER(H3:N3)),(H3:N3=G3))+(B3="S") =SUMPRODUCT(--(ISNUMBER(H3:N3)),--(H3:N3=G3))+(B3="S") are still triggering the conditional format even though H3:N3 does not equal G3. Example: When G3=2 and H3:N3 contains no matching 2 and B3="S" it is still triggering the conditional format. This also occurs when H3:N3 contains zeroes and blanks. It should only trigger the conditional format when there is a matching value between G3 and any field within H3:N3. Thanks for everyone's help so far, any further ideas?

Well of course it triggers the conditional format if B3="S" as you've added
+(B3="S") to the SUMPRODUCT. That addition is effectively an OR function. If you wanted an AND function, try *(B3="S") instead of +(B3="S") -- David Biddulph "Johndb" wrote in message ...

I think you need to give us some more detail about what you're trying to do. You said this is for CF. What cell(s) are you wanting to format? Based on what condition(s)? OK, we've determined that B3=S is a separate condition. Does H3:N3 ever contain TEXT? Might there be formula blanks in the range? What's in G3?

What version of Excel are you using?
There is a limit to the number of CF conditions you can apply depending on the version of Excel. In versions prior to Excel 2007 the limit is 3 conditions. In Excel 2007 there is no number limit, the limit is system resources. If you're using a version of Excel prior to Excel 2007 then you'll have to use a macro to cover more than 3 conditions. -- Biff Microsoft Excel MVP "Johndb" wrote in message ...

What cell(s) are you wanting to format? Based on what condition(s)? OK, we've determined that B3=S is a separate condition. Does H3:N3 ever contain TEXT? Might there be formula blanks in the range?

David,
I've got the original problem fixed now I think, thank you. However, now two out the five conditional formats I wrote aren't aren't working right. I believe this is my fault, and they just need rewriting. Using the base of, which works: =SUMPRODUCT(--(ISNUMBER(H3:N3)),--(H3:N3=G3))*(B3="S") How would I write: =SUMPRODUCT(--(ISNUMBER(H3:N3)),--(H3:N3=G3))*(B3="S") H3:N3="N" OR "L" with no reference to B3 at all. =SUMPRODUCT(--(ISNUMBER(H3:N3)),--(H3:N3=G3))*(B3="S") H3:N3G3 with no reference to B3 at all. You've been of great help and patience, help me get the last mile.

Are you sure that you used "Formula Is" in CF, not "Cell Value Is"? Are you sure that you did specify the format you want to use in the CF condition? [Sorry, the =SUMPRODUCT((in a cell. What value do you get? H3:N3 ???)),(H3:N3=G3)) was a copy & paste hiccup, but you've tested enough to see that the full condition is working.] -- David Biddulph "Johndb" wrote in message ...
