    stdev if?

    i have a list of numbers in one column and an answer (yes/no) in the next colomn
    i want to check the standard deviation only if they answered yes
    i know there isn't an stdevif function similar to averageif in excel 2007 but could anyone recommend a clever way in solving my problem?
    thanks

    You can use an array formula like

    =STDEV(IF(B2:B100="Y",A2:A100))

    confirmed with CTRL+SHIFT+ENTER
