    Filter command from Google Docs not working on Excel

    I have a spreadsheet that I created and edit in Google Docs, and in one cell I have the following function

    =SUM(FILTER(E9:E998,F9:F998>0))

    It resolves the sum of all cells in column E, if there is a value greater than 0 in its corresponding cell in column F.

    This works fine in Google Docs, but when I put it in Excel 2003, it tells me it is not a valid function.

    Is there a way to achieve this such that it works in both places?

    FILTER is not an Excel function. You could use SUMIF.

    What would I put for the third leg of the formula?

    =SUMIF(E9:E998, F9:F998>0, ???)

    Take a look at Help for SUMIF and post back if that doesn't make it clear.

    Confused me at first, but I did figure it out.

    Thanks,
