    count unique values across multiple sheets based on date

    good day

    i wish to count how many times a specific value occur on a specific date across different sheets. i am attaching a sample workbook.
    Book1_sample.xlsx
    in the workbook, the dates are extracted from the various sheets and added in cells C3:L3 (or as many dates there are)
    B4:B are constants that will remain there and the values that needs to be found and counted
    the values being counted are always in column F in the different sheets.

    either code or a formula would work, pivot tables not ideal.

    your assistance is highly appreciated

    regards

    Re: count unique values across multiple sheets based on date

    Hi,

    A couple of questions:

    What do you mean by count 'unique' values in your thread title?

    Just checking the first of your desired outcomes, how do you arrive at a result of 4 for 02084876 on 02-Feb-14? I see only 3: 1 in A Codes and 2 in B Codes.

    Regards

    Re: count unique values across multiple sheets based on date

    1st, put all your sheet names in a small table, then give that range a name - I used "codes"

    You can then use this, copied down and across...
    =SUMPRODUCT(COUNTIFS(INDIRECT("'"&codes&"'!F2:F50"),$B4,INDIRECT("'"&codes&"'!a2:a50"),C$3))

    My answers dont match what you had, so hopefully they were all dummy answers?
    1. Use code tags for VBA. [code] Your Code [/code] (or use the # button)
    2. If your question is resolved, mark it SOLVED using the thread tools
    3. Click on the star if you think someone helped you

    Using COUNTIFS this will work. I changed the "TEXT" numbers to real numbers.

    Formula: copy to clipboard
