I am creating a spreadsheet, and would like to produce some statistics from it. How do i get data from two different columns one word one numeric.

I.e

Name Age Gender Initial/Review Mother attended
jahd 12 M Initial Y
jshh 14 F Review Y
kajd 13 M Initial N
kasl 12 M Review Y


I would like to know if the mother attended the initial reviews. What would the formula be?

in Excel 2007 you could use COUNTIFS and simply count the attended column if
it is Y and the Review Column is initial

=COUNTIFS(d1:D10,"Initial",E1:e10,"Y")

you can also use a sumproduct formula (this will work in Excel 2003)

=sumproduct(--(D1:D10)="Initial",--(E1:e10="Y"))

Unless I read the OP's post incorrectly, I think your formula should be
this...

=SUMPRODUCT((D1:D10="Initial")*(E1:E10="Y"))
