Help with tweaking formula
 
Community,

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, such as:
=SUMPRODUCT(--(ISNUMBER(H3:N3)),--(H3:N3="N" or "L"))


=SUMPRODUCT(--(ISNUMBER(H3:N3)),--(H3:N3=G3))*(B3="S")
H3:N3G3 with no
reference to B3 at all, such as:
=SUMPRODUCT(--(ISNUMBER(H3:N3)),--(H3:N3G3))


Thanks in advance,

John

This logic does not make sense. If H3:N3 are numbers, they cannot be
text ("N", "L"). These mutually exclusive conditions will always return
zero. What are you trying to achieve here?

=SUMPRODUCT(--(ISNUMBER(H3:N3)),--(H3:N3=G3))*(B3="S")
H3:N3G3 with no
reference to B3 at all, such as:
=SUMPRODUCT(--(ISNUMBER(H3:N3)),--(H3:N3G3))


Should work exactly as you described, to wit: count how many cells in
H3:N3 are numbers and are greater than G3.

SMartin,

H3:N3 can be Numbers, Text, or Blanks. These formula variations are being
used for conditional formatting.

Hope that helps.

Thanks,

John

Hi John,

It will be helpful if you restate your problem in terms of the
logical/business requirements instead of suggesting a formula as an answer.

To that end, is this an accurate interpretation?:

'Count cells H3:N3 where H3:N3 is a number OR H3:N3 equals "N" or "L"'?

Best Regards
