Hello-

Is there a way to set up a SUMPRODUCT so that it will automatically
adjust the array length to the last value in a column???

For example if I have column A data that starts in row 9 and ends in
row 50. Part of my SUMPRODUCT would look like --(A9-A50),

Then if I add 5 rows of data could I set up a SUMPRODUCT to
automatically adjust to now include those extra 5 rows?

You could use indirect ranges such as
=SUMPRODUCT(--(indirect($A$1)=condition1),--(indirect($B$1)=condition2))
Where A1 and B1 name the ranges with formula such as
="Sheet1A"&row(A9)&":A"&row(A9)+counta(A10:A$65536 )-1

Of course indirect can be volatile if you insert or delete columns

That should have been
="Sheet1A"&row(A9)&":A"&row(A9)+counta(A9:A$655 36)-1

First, "Sheet1A9" is an invalid textref. The exclamation point between
the worksheet name and the column letter isn't optional.

INDIRECT is *always* 'volatile'. Perhaps you mean dangerous or fragile?
INDIRECT is also not the best choice. OFFSET would be if volatile
functions are acceptable.

=SUMPRODUCT(--(OFFSET(A9,0,0,COUNTA(A9:A65536),1)=condition1),.. .)

However, this depends on there being no gaps, blank cells, in column A
before the final nonblank value.

Safer and nonvolatile to use

=SUMPRODUCT(--(A9:INDEX(A:A,LOOKUP(2,1/(1-ISBLANK(A9:A65536)),
ROW(A9:A65536)))=condition1),...)

There are several ways to do this, one way without using a volatile function
would be

=SUMPRODUCT(--($A$9:INDEX($A$9:$A$20000,COUNTA($A$9:$A$20000))))

which would be the same as

=SUMPRODUCT(--($A$9:$A$50))

now add 5 values

and it will adapt, you can also define a dynamic named range like here

http://www.contextures.com/xlNames01.html#Dynamic

that particular website is the best IMHO if you want to learn excel
