    Talking Count text column based on Two Grouping Columns

    Good morning

    I have three columns of data:

    Column A = ID#
    Column B = Week: Week1, Week2, Week3 . . . . up to Week30 for each ID #
    Column C = various codes: S, D, NS, A
    In Column D, I want to only count the A's for each week for each ID#

    A B C D
    ID# WEEK CODE A
    1 Week1 A 1
    1 Week1 D 1
    1 Week2 A 2
    1 Week2 A 2
    1 Week2 S 2
    2 Week1 A 2
    2 Week1 A 2
    2 Week2 A 3
    2 Week2 A 3
    2 Week2 D 3
    2 Week2 A 3

    I know I can use pivot tables, but this file will be used in a statistical package so I need to code the data a particular way.

    Thanks

    a spreadsheet as per the yellow banner, would have been good to see the setup
    try
    =IF(OR(A2="",B2=B1),"",COUNTIFS(A:A,A2,B:B,B2,C:C,"A"))
    and copy down

    OR if you need an entry for every row
    =IF(A2="","",COUNTIFS(A:A,A2,B:B,B2,C:C,"A"))

    That second formula worked beautifully. It was exactly what I needed.

    Thank you so much!
