Default Vlookup Count confusion !


The scenario is that i have 2 worksheets to link together.

In Worksheet 1 i have the following:
3 Columns, marked 1 (in B1), 2 (in C1), 3 (in D1)
5 rows marked 1-10 (in A2), 11-20 (in A3), 21-30 (in A4 etc), 31-40,
41-50


In Worksheet 2 i have the following data in 2 columns:
8 (in A1) 1 (in B1)
9 (in A2) 2 (in B2)
10 (in A3) 2 (in B3 etc)
21 3
7 1
44 1 etc
The question is, In sheet 1, can i get a formula to count the number
of (for example) 1's in the range of (for example) 1-10 by looking at
the data in sheet 2, and returning the number in Sheet 1 B2. In this
example, the number of 1's in the range 1-10 is 2.... But whats the
formula ??

I've been looking at Vlookup and Count functions and IF functions but
no joy yet, so if anyone can help please? Many thanks

Try something like this, Andy:
=SUMIF(Sheet2!$A$1:$A$6,"<="&A2,Sheet2!$B$1:$B$6)

Oh! By the way, Andy, change your values from (for instance) 1-10 to just
10. If you need the "1 to" part, then put it in a previous column.

a little unclear but

=sumproduct((sheet2!a1:a100=1)*(sheet2!a1:a100<=1 0)*(sheet2!b1:b100=1))

will return a count of the # of 1's in column b sheet 2 where column a
is in the range of 1 to 10

If you are trying to refer to the column a entry in sheet 1 of "1 -
10", I think you will have difficulty, though you could neter 1 in say
column f and 10 in column g and refer to those cells in the sum product
(instead of "=1" use "=f2" if the 1-10 row is row 2. The column a
entry would then be =f2&" - "&g2

hope this helps

Hello Anne and thanks for your response.

The answer to your 'answer' gives a return of 6 (1+2+2+1) for the range
1-10.

I'd like it to return an answer of the how many 1's there are in the
range 1-10 (so the right answer is '2' ....i'e there are 2 1's in the
range 1-10.

I think we're nearly there....!

since you have two critieria - only count "1"'s and only for column a in
range of 1-10 you need the sumproduct formula.

What does "the number of 1's in the range 1-10" mean, exactly? What is the
significance of "1-10" in other words. Or why isn't the correct answer merely
the count of 1's (B1, B5, B6) = 3?

as far as i can tell it is because the 44 in column a corresponding to
the 3rd 1 in column b is not in the range of 1 to 10. But, the
question is not very clear.

You're probably correct. Let's see if he clarifies things.

Sorry for confusing you...it's because i'm confused !

To clarify,

I'd like the formula to count the number of 1's in column 2, if the
number on the same row in column 1 is between 1 and 10.

So the scenario is, in column 1, I have the following numbers
8 in A1
9 in A2
10 in A3
21 in A4
7 in A5
44 in A6

In column 2 I have
1 in B1
2 in B2
2 in B3
3 in B4
1 in B5
1 in B6

The formula i'd like in (say) C1 is to Count the number of 1's that
occur in column 2, only if the number in the same row in Column 1 is in
the range 1-10.

So the answer i'd like would be 2 in this example. Because a 1 in
Column 2 is only adjacent twice to a number between 1-10 in column 1
(the numbers being 8 (A1) and 7 (A5))

Sorry Duane, Ron, Anne.....

SO ... Duane's Sumproduct formula works *exactly* as you specified.

Have you tried it?

And what happens when you use Duane's formula? It appears as if it should work
according to these specs.

the only thing i would add is are you looking for 1-10 inclusive, or
"between 1 and 10" ie 2-9 inclusive?
