In column A are dates
In column B are values (1, 2, 3) I want to look at A for a date greater than a specific date then match to B for a specific number and count as 1 if they match if A 11/30/04 and B = 1 then count as 1 If I have 5 rows that fit the criteria then the answer would be 5. Please help with the formula, I have tried countif and nested in countif. Thanks Dawn |
Hi,
Try this... a b 1 1/1/2005 1 2 1/3/2005 2 3 1/6/2005 3 4 1/7/05 {=SUM(IF(a4aD1:a3,b1:b3))} this will return a 6 make sure to use the cntl shift enter combination after writing the formula. peter -----Original Message----- In column A are dates In column B are values (1, 2, 3) I want to look at A for a date greater than a specific date then match to B for a specific number and count as 1 if they match if A 11/30/04 and B = 1 then count as 1 If I have 5 rows that fit the criteria then the answer would be 5.

I do not want to sum the 1,2,3. I want to count each one as 1, the answer
would be 3.

Sorry I was wrong in the last email if I was looking for A=1 and b11/30/04
a b 1 12/30/04 1 11/15/04 1 12/15/04 2 12/1/04 With this my answer would be 2 "peter" wrote: Hi, Try this... a b 1 1/1/2005 1 2 1/3/2005 2 3 1/6/2005 3 4 1/7/05 {=SUM(IF(a4aD1:a3,b1:b3))} this will return a 6 make sure to use the cntl shift enter combination after writing the formula. peter -----Original Message----- In column A are dates In column B are values (1, 2, 3) I want to look at A for a date greater than a specific date then match to B for a specific number and count as 1 if they match if A 11/30/04 and B = 1 then count as 1 If I have 5 rows that fit the criteria then the answer would be 5.

It appears that you've switched your dates from ColumnA to ColumnB in your
two examples. Anyway, try this: Dates in ColumnA, from A3 to A100. Values in ColumnB, from B3 to B100 Column headers in A2 and B2. Enter the specific start date in A1, And the value to find (count) in B1. Then, try this: =SUMPRODUCT((A3:A100A1)*(B3:B100=B1)) -- HTH, RD ============================================== Please keep all correspondence within the Group, so all may benefit! ============================================== "Dawn S" wrote in message ...

Hi,
sorry, I didn't see your other post. see if this is what you need... =SUM(IF( ( $a$1:$a$3$a$4)* ($b$1:$b$3=$b$4 ) ,1,0)) a4 has a date criteria b4 has a criteria that must match items in b peter -----Original Message----- I do not want to sum the 1,2,3.

Ok, one more question. Take the same formula and instead of AF3 (which is a
date) I need between AF2 and AF3.
