    formula to count how many times a word appears in a row for a date

    Dear all,

    I'm breaking my head how to do this. I have a sheet with in column A a range with different words. In column B there are dates. So if a team member has a partialy rejected case, he will fill it in column A and put a date in column B and in column C the case number. Now I need to count how many partially rejected cases where that day and that number goes later in a month report. I was hoping to do this with a If formula or a sumif formula. I just don't find information how to deal with this kind of case.

    The workbook we have is as per month, so every month we produce a new month and fill it again. Every team member has his own sheet where he fills it in for the whole month.

    If any one could help, would be great.

    Thanks in advance.

    Hi

    In column A, is only one word, OR a string that includes this particular word?

    Can you upload a small sample workbook?
    Regards

    In I2 and copy down.

    =SUMPRODUCT(($B$2:$B$33=H2)*($A$2:$A$33="Partially rejected"))
