    Counting matched values from another sheet with concatenate always returns zero

    =COUNT(CONCATENATE("'Sheet1'!",CONCATENATE("A",SUM(MATCH('Sheet2'!A1,'Sheet1'!$A:$A,0)-1))),CONCATENATE("'Sheet1'!",CONCATENATE("Z",SUM(MATCH('Sheet1'!A1,'Sheet1'!$A:$A,0)-1))))

    The concatenates work to what I want, evaluating to COUNT(Sheet1!A(matched row):Sheet1!XYZ(matched row)) but the count always returns zero. Any ideas on why this might be?

    Note I Underlined a possible error in both with the Match function..I would assume you were looking to have them both reference the same sheet, not sheet 2 in the first and sheet 1 in the second...?

    Hope this helps

    Any ideas on how to count zero's per a selected line item name? example filter item by name and write down now many zeros occur for the spreadsheet item.
