    Counting Multiple Cells

    Hello,

    Im trying add a field that only counts the persons name if they have the word confirmed in another column.
    So far im only able to figure out how to count their name if it appears in column B. But I only want to count how many times that person in column B has the word "confirmed" in column E.

    See attached.

    I don't think I worded this right, so please ask me questions if this doesn't make sense.

    Thank you!!!

    You need to use the COUNTIFS function, which allows you to set two criteria.
