How:iserror vlookup & count no. times value shows with conditions
How do I use an Iserror Vlookup to count how many time a value appears,

Use COUNTIF to count values with one condition and SUMPRODUCT to count with
more than one condition =COUNTIF(A2:A100,B2) will count the value in cell B2 in A2:A100 =SUMPRODUCT(--(A2:A100=B2),--(C2:C100=D1)) will count B2 in A2:A100 and D2 in C2:C100 to remove #N/A from VLOOKUP result use =IF(ISNA(MATCH(B2,D2:D100,0)),"",VLOOKUP( Regards, Peo Sjoblom "Pauline" wrote in message ...

I do not think this will work
I have two worksheets. Worksheet 1 is where I want to have my calculation based on the number of times a word appears in a defined Name range in another worksheet (worksheet 2), but only count this if the month appears in another defined range (column) on worksheet 2. Therefore worksheet 1 could have the following: apples pears oranges Worksheet 2 could have data with column 4 showing names of fruit and column 6 showing the months of the year. In worksheet 1 I want to ask excel to count how many times apples appear but only count them if the month is January. Hope this is clear. Any help to resolve this would be much appreciated.

Assuming data in column 4 sheet 2 is named "Fruit", and data in column
6 sheet is named "Months", and both ranges are contained within the same rows. Then with apples, pears and oranges in A1:A3 on sheet 1, enter in B1 =SUMPRODUCT((fruit=A1)*(months="January")) and copy down.

Use the sumproduct adapted to your data
=SUMPRODUCT(--(A2:A100=B2),--(MONTH(C2:C100)=D1)) where B2 would hold the fruit and D1 the month number Regards, Peo Sjoblom "Pauline" wrote in message ...

Still no joy. I have #NUM error message
Here is another example. Worksheet 1 Fruits Jan Feb Mar April May apple #NUM! pear apple banana Orange Worksheet 2 Name Fruit Month Fred apple 1 Jo apple 1 Alan pear 2 Pete orange 1 I have defined the column Fruit as Fruit and Month as Month. My formula is: =SUMPRODUCT((Fruit=Sheet1!A3)*(Month=1)) I get #NUM! error message By the way, does it matter that I am still using excel 2000 for this formulae on another machine.

Excel 2000 wouldn't matter, I suspect you made an error when you defined the
names, they need to be of the same size, are they? Are the months in sheet2 numeric integers (not that it would prevent the error but it would not pickup the number if they are text)? First check that the defined names are using absolute references (dollar signs like Sheet1!$A2$A$50) and that if you use A2:A50 then the month needs to be the same size or else you'll get NUM error Regards, Peo Sjoblom "Pauline" wrote in message ...

I am afraid it still does not work.
The Fruit is a character field and the month is a number. Is this the problem ?

You still get the error? Just try with a smaller scale without using defined
names, let's say =SUMPRODUCT(--('Worksheet 2'!A2:A10="Apple"),--('Worksheet 2'!B2:B10=1)) adapt to fit you sheet names, then if it works it must be an error in the defined names. If you get an answer you didn't expect you might want to check for leading and traling spaces in the text Regards, Peo Sjoblom "Pauline" wrote in message ... I am afraid it still does not work.
