    which count function?

    Hi,

    Cell A2:A100 contains a dropdown list (choice of six Sites)
    C2:C100 to I2:I100 contains hours worked at the relevant site (by day)
    Each of the rows relates to a different person.
    I am trying to count the number of people working at each site each day

    I have tried IF, DCOUNT, COUNT, FREQUENCY etc. with no success.

    Has anyone any suggestions, please?

    Sample as requested

    A1 B1 C1 D1
    London Bill 8
    Exeter Fred 8 8
    London John 8 6
    Norfolk Joe 6 6

    Where A1 = list (using validation)
    B1 = Name of employee
    C1 = Hours worked on Monday
    D1 = Hoours worked on Tuesday etc.

    I am needing to count how many people worked in each location each day e.g. in the example London = 2 (Monday) & 1 (Tuesday)

    Does this make any sense?

    Thanks for your help

    Tony

    =SUMPRODUCT(--($A1:$A4="London"),--(C1:C4>0)) for Monday.
    Copy formula to the right for Tuesday, Wed, etc..

    Hi Tony,

    The formula is
    =SUMPRODUCT(--(Sheet1 !$A2:$A100=$A1),--NOT(ISBLANK(Sheet1 !C2:C100)))

    where

    Sheet1 is your data sheet
    > A1 B1 C1 D1
    > London Bill 8
    > Exeter Fred 8 8
    > London John 8 6
    > Norfolk Joe 6 6


    Sheet2 is a summary sheet:

    A B C D
    City Monday Tuesday Wednesday ...
    London formula->
    Exeter |
    Norfolk V

    Fill the formula to right and down!

    Regards,
    Stefi

    Thanks guys

    In spite of my "less than perfect" description of what I was trying to do you have succeeded in making an old man very happy

    I used the suggestion from Ardus Petus (simply because that was the first one I came to) but my thanks also to Stefi for your contribution.

    IHope I can return the favour one day ...
