Hello,

I am having problems creating a formula to count the number of rows that meet three seperate criteria. I want it to count every row that has "Positive" in one column, "Budgeting" in the next column, and a specific date range in the last - and return the amount of rows that meet all three of those critera. I have made a few attempts at this my latest being:

=SUMPRODUCT((Repository!$E$4:$E$65497="Positive")*(Repository!$C$4:$C$65497="Budgeting")*((COUNTIF(Repository!$F$4:$F$65497,"<"&DATE(2009,12,31)))-(COUNTIF(Repository!$F$4:$F$65497,"<"&DATE(2009,1,1)))))

But it returns 24 when it should only return 1.

Thank you very much for your help and valuable time

Lock one reference in a formula
Need 1 part of a formula to always point to the same range? use $ signs: $V$2:$Z$99 will always point to V2:Z99, even after copying
Hello & Welcome to the board,

How about...

Code:
=SUMPRODUCT(--(Repository!$E$4:$E$65497="Positive"),
         --(Repository!$C$4:$C$65497="Budgeting"),
         --(Repository!$F$4:$F$65497<DATE(2009,12,31)),
         --(Repository!$F$4:$F$65497>DATE(2009,1,1)))

Is the date criteria any date within the year 2009?

Yeah I tried to get it right, but maybe it's just Aladin who can do that setup so well :)
Well, if the date criteria is count any date within the year 2009 then you can do something like this...

...--(YEAR(range)=2009),...

It's that less than symbol that messes with you!

When in doubt add spaces characters on either side:

...--(range < whatever),...

Yes it is any date within 2009, I'll give that a try
OK, try it like this...

=SUMPRODUCT(--(Repository!$E$4:$E$65497="Positive"),--(Repository!$C$4:$C$65497="Budgeting"),--(YEAR(Repository!F$4:$F$65497)=2009))

I'm a big fan of using cells to hold the criteria:
  • A1 = Positive
  • B1 = Budgeting
  • C1 = 2009
=SUMPRODUCT(--(Repository!$E$4:$E$65497=A1),--(Repository!$C$4:$C$65497=B1),--(YEAR(Repository!F$4:$F$65497)=C1))
