I have two problems.
First when I am doing a sumif formula, if I type
=Sumif(A2:M2,"5",A2:M2) then my value is returned for the sum of
whatever cells contain a number greater than 5. However if I want A1
to have the value to look for and I type =SumIf(A2:M2,"A1",A2:M2) I
get a value of 0. I don't know what is wrong.
Second I want to SumIf the criteria in A2:M2 is within 10% plus or
minus of the value I type in A1. I don't know how to ask it to sum
numbers that are within a plus or minus 10% of A1 or plus or minus 10%
of 5.

Maybe

=SumIf(A2:M2,"<"&1.1*A1,A2:M2) -SumIf(A2:M2,"<"&.9*A1,A2:M2)

In other words,
1) the sum of everything less than 110% of A1
2) MINUS everything less than 90% of A1

Alternatively:

=SUMPRODUCT(--(A2:M2(.9*a1)),--(A2:M2<(1.1*a1)),a2:m2)

=SumIf(A2:M2,""&A1)

and

=SUMPRODUCT(--(A2:M2A1*90%),--(A2:M2<=A1*110%),A2:M2)

Or

=SUMPRODUCT(--(ABS(A2:M2/A1-1)<=0.1),A2:M2)

Yep, I buy that.
