Sumproduct usage?
My brain's on overload at the moment, so I'm turning to you guys for
help. I need help w/ a formula that will count the number of sales that someone had based on a certain date...I thought I could use sumproduct, but I'm beginning to wonder if I was wrong about that. The relavant columns are D & M. Col D Col M 12/24/2009 Andy 12/24/2009 Charles 12/24/2009 Andy 12/25/2009 Charles |

You had the right function in mind.
Try something like this... Use cells to hold the criteria: A1 = some date B1 = some name =SUMPRODUCT(--(D1:D10=A1),--(M1:M10=B1)) If you're using Excel 2007 then you can use the COUNTIFS function: =COUNTIFS(D1:D10,A1,M1:M10,B1) -- Biff Microsoft Excel MVP "Destrachan" wrote in message ...

Sumproduct usage?
Hi,
For a given date =SUMPRODUCT((D1:D20=DATE(2009,12,24))*(M1:M20="And y")) Over a range of dates =SUMPRODUCT((D1:D20=DATE(2009,12,23))*(D1:D20<=DA TE(2009,12,24))*(M1:M20="Andy")) In practice I would use cell ref's for the criteria =SUMPRODUCT((D1:D20=A1)*(M1:M20=A2)) Mike "Destrachan" wrote: My brain's on overload at the moment, so I'm turning to you guys for help.

Hi,
Create a Pivot table. Drag column D to the row area, column M to the column area and column M (again) to the data area.
