Trouble with if/and formula...

[RTE]

I'm having trouble getting a value that meets two conditions in two different columns. In the following set of data, I'm trying to determine how many times "CE" in column A and "red" in column B occur. Any help with this formula would be great.

[VoG]

Try

=SUMPRODUCT(--(A1:A100="CE"),--(B1:B100="red"))

 

[jim may]

FWIW...

If Sumproduct were not available (GOD FORBID!!) -- It's the bast way to go here

but here's another way, commit entry with Ctrl+Shift+Enter, not just enter key

=SUM(IF($A$1:$A$15&$B$1:$B$15="CE"&"red",1,""))

after comitting with CSE it should have "{" and "}" at beginning and at end.
These CANNOT be entered using the keyboard, they get in by pressing the
CSE keystroke combination.
