coutif with 3 criteria including brackets
Hello
I try to to use 3 critéria in a formula with the Countif function. Actually two of them represent a bracket. For the calcul of the bracket I found the good result by using : =countif(E4:E2337;"<=2")-countif(E4:E2337;"<=5") where I am in trouble is when I try to add the third criterion in my formula =countif(D4:D2337;"yes") I tried those math operators but none of them works +, -, * Do you have an idea ? Thanks Ray |

Ray,
I am not quite sure what you were doing, but is this what you want =SUMPRODUCT(--(E4:E2337=2);--(E4:E2337<=5);--(D4:D2337="yes")) -- HTH RP (remove nothere from the email address if mailing direct) "Ray" wrote in message ...

The tests in the parentheses return TRUE or FALSE. The "--" makes Excel
turn true/false into 1/0, which allows doing the math. "Ray" wrote in message ... Hello Bob I have just tried this formula and it works fine Thank you very much.
