Trying to count the number of cells that meet two sets of Criteria

Hi,

Since you still have the older XL2003 you'll need a SUMPRODUCT() function rather than the arguably simpler COUNTIFS() function that was introduced for XL 2007+

So in F3 copied down

Obviously change the ranges to cover your real data.

Countifs should work with 2007 if I remember correctly.

No need for the equal sign in the criteria arguments. Testing for equality is the default condition.

=COUNTIFS($A$2:$A$25,D3,$B$2:$B$25,">"&E3)

Hi,

Just wondering but did you change your profile to indicate you had XL 2007 rather than XL2003 since clearly and perhaps mistakenly I thought you only had XL2003 and hence mentioned the SUMPRODUCT would be needed rather than the COUNTIFS which I mentioned.

You're correct of course Tony. I had a lot going on and just didn't take the = out before posting.

At my age it should be "one thing at a time"

You're welcome. Thanks for the feedback!
