Long time 123 user converting to excel :). Trying to find equivalent
function in excel. In 123 I can connect to a dbase IV (*.dbf) table
using a macro. example: {DATABASE-CONNECT
"dBASE_IV";;;;"c:\apfolder";;;;"table01";"table01" } END example

Once this is done I can pull data from that table using @dsum
(SQL)formulas in the cells. example:
@DSUM(table01,"Quantity",Country=$A15#AND#Customer =B$13) END example.

Can anyone help directly or steer me to someone that can explain how to
do this with excel.

BTW: I am hoping I can use the existing tables in the dbase IV
format.

Hello

You can use this using Excel Database Function ,i.e Dsum as given below
=DSUM(table01,"Quantity",E2:F3)
so first the function name(in the name of the range of database, or select
the entire data with heading,then the total on the coloumn u want,and then
the criteria range)

some where you need to have criteria as below [E2:F3]
Customer Country
Vipul India

Know if you condition is same row then it is and condition and if the
condition is different row then it is or condition. I hope it will help u

Thanks
Vipul C Dani

Thanks Vipul,
I understand what you gave me when the data is embedded in the
spreadsheet and is identified with a range. My data resides in
separate files, example table01.dbf.
See my first note. I first use a macro in the spreadsheet to access
this dbf file. Then the formula in the cell does the dsum.:(
