I have a worksheet where I'm try to count the number of items with JobCode=P
and an amount greater than 0. I think I should be able to do it with a
COUNTIF and AND logic but I keep getting errors. Anyone help me with this?
Thanks. Michael

JobCode Amount
P 20
C 10

Hi

you need to use the SUMPRODUCT function
=SUMPRODUCT(--(A1:A10="P"),--(B1:B100))

check out

for details on how this works

cheers

Another way is to CONCATENATE the two columns into a third column and then
do a COUNTIF on that column, (P20).........you can also so this for more
than two columns.

Maybe, but this seems to work with the OP's sample data...........
=A1&"_"&B1 in C1 and copy down..............

=COUNTIF(C:C,"P_0") in cell D1

Yeah but a value of Q in A and 0 in B also counts in this method, which
doesn't meet the OP's criteria.

True, but then how about.....

=COUNTIF(C:C,"P_0")-COUNTIF(C:C,"=Q_0")

it seems to fit, but then like you said, "it's getting difficult" <g
