I am using countifs extensively in the spreadsheet - but have a condition that could be solved easily by the ability to incorporate an "or" condition in the criteria list within the function. Is that possible?

1st hit with Google, using the search term "excel countif with or" returns the above.
Edit

Things to consider:
1) You can thank any poster by clicking the * at the left of a helpful post.
2) You can help to keep the forum tidy by marking your thread as "Solved", if it has been answered to your satisfaction.
3) Help us to help you, by uploading a sample workbook, showing the type of data you're dealing with, and clearly indicating what the results should be.
I think the way you approach this might differ depending on the nature of the "OR" criteria, how many different conditions are there, are you doing an exact match with criteria or using ">" or "<" type criteria? Some approaches might not be possible depending on your answers so more details please......
