    How to return a value when 3 different criteria across 3 columns are met?

    Hi all,

    I'm hoping to get some help with a formula that will return a value if 3 different criteria are met across 3 different columns.

    Below are the ranges and criteria for each:

    F3:F230 – if a cell in this range is EITHER 'AG', 'HF', 'MH', or 'PO', then it should be counted in the final returned value
    N3:N230 – if a cell in this range has a number that BEGINS WITH '2', then it should be counted in the final returned value
    O3:O230 – if a cell in this range is 'F', then it should be counted in the final returned value

    NOTE: the single quote marks don't appear in the cells.

    In other words, I need a total count that includes the number of times all 3 criteria are met.

    Many thanks,

    Jared.

    Please try.

    =SUM(--($F$3:$F$230={"AG","HF","MH","PO"})*--(LEFT(TEXT($N$3:$N$230,"0"),1)="2")*--(LEFT($O$3:$O$230,1)="F"))
    Press Ctrl-Shift-Enter for ARRAY formula



    Regards.
