    Sumproduct not working

    Hi There,

    I tried few times and see no issue in my formula for sumproduct. Can anybody help me. It looks a silly mistake but clearly I'm not looking properly

    =SUMPRODUCT(--('raw data pcn sidem'!$P$1:$P$54629=F11),--('raw data pcn sidem'!$L$1:$L$54629='reps summary sheet'!Q10))

    What I want is the first to look for a list and compare the name against in a main sheet( where result is displayed) and similar in the next part and just give me a total count..I'm using as array formula..

    Please help!

    No need to use as an ARRAY formula. Just click ENTER to confirm the formula.

    Re: Sumproduct not working

    Looks OK, assuming that F11 is on the active sheet (the same sheet as the formula) and the sheet references are correct for the other ranges and cells.

    When you say, "not working", what does that mean? We probably need to see a sample workbook to check the actual data.

    SUMPRODUCT works with arrays but it is NOT an Array Formula, that is, you do NOT need to use Ctrl-Shift-Enter to commit it.

    Before you upload a small sample workbook, give a try to this.

    I believe you are missing one more parameter in the SUMPRODUCT

    Re: Sumproduct not working

    Hi,

    The two sheet1 ranges need to be the same number of rows. In addition the $Q$10 reference should be relative as far as the column ref is concerned. i.e.

    See the attached. Usually better to keep the structure the same but hopefully you can work with the attached updated example.
