Default array formulas

I'm a liitle confused about the difference between "regular" formulas and
array formulas. For example, I'm using "SUMPRODUCT" with 2 criteria to sum
values.

I am getting the correct sum, even though I don't have the array brackets in
my formula. Any help would be useful!

SUMPRODUCT doesn't need to be array-entered, that's why <g. And that's one
of its strengths !

(Think there could be exceptions though, for eg: where TRANSPOSE is used
within the SUMPRODUCT)

Dave,

SUMPRODUCT works with array already, and doesn't need to be
array-entered. The array handling ability is built-in to
SUMPRODUCT natively.
