Sumproduct error
Hi,
You didn't say what you expected the formula to do. Is it this =COUNTA(D25,F25,H25,J25,L25,N25,P25) -- Mike When competing hypotheses are otherwise equal, adopt the hypothesis that introduces the fewest assumptions while still sufficiently answering the question.

Certainly we can help. What do you want the formula to do?

Sumproduct error
Why am I getting a #VALUE! error in the following.
=SUMPRODUCT(--(D25,F25,H25,J25,L25,N25,P25<"")) SUMPRODUCT won't accept discontinuous cell references like that. Do any of those cells contain formulas that return formula blanks ("") ? -- Biff Microsoft Excel MVP "Gotroots" wrote in message ...

Sumproduct error
Sorry about that.
I want to return a numeric value total based on the specified cells containing a value. I had used a previous formula which I modified: =SUMPRODUCT(--(P11:P7799<"")) The above gave a numeric result if 'P' contained a value(s) So back to the formula I want to use: =SUMPRODUCT(--(D25,F25,H25,J25,L25,N25,P25<"")) This should display a numeric value based on D25,F25,H25,J25,L25,N25,P25 containing a value. Example F25 and N25 contain a value Result should then be: 2 Hope this is clear Gotroots "Mike H" wrote: Hi, You didn't say what you expected the formula to do.

Don't you just want Sum? As in:
=SUM(D25,F25,H25,J25,L25,N25,P25) Sum will ignore blanks and text for you automatically. Regards, Fred "Gotroots" wrote in message ... Sorry about that.

Actually the values are all text.
I just want a result returned if where a cell contains any kind of value. Gotroots "Fred Smith" wrote: Don't you just want Sum?

Sumproduct error
Just realised I was trying to crack a nut with a sledgehammer.
The formula =SUMPRODUCT(--(P11:P7799<"")) modified to =SUMPRODUCT(--(D25:P25<"")) was ok to use after all. Thank you guys anyway. Gotroots "Gotroots" wrote: Actually the values are all text.

So then you want to count the cells. Specifically, counta, as in:
=COUNTA(D25,F25,H25,J25,L25,N25,P25) will count all non-blank cells. Regards, Fred "Gotroots" wrote in message ... Actually the values are all text.
