Default Error problem

I have this formular:
=SUMPRODUCT(--(Tables!$C$2:$C$2979=$A4),--(Tables!$D$2:$D$2979=$B4),--(Tables!$E$2:$E$2979="Yes"))

but it is showing as an error. Iknow there is no errors in there but when I
click the Trace Error option I get a little "Table" icon and I don't know
what that is or what it means.
Any ideas?

Hi,

There's nothing wrong with the formula so it must be the data, what 'error'
are you getting?

Hi,
the missing part in the formula is where you want to pull the information if
the three conditions are met, let's say column F

=SUMPRODUCT(--(Tables!$C$2:$C$2979=$A4),--(Tables!$D$2:$D$2979=$B4),--(Tables!$E$2:$E$2979="Yes"),Tables!$F$2:$F$2979)

Look for error(s) in one (or all) of those ranges.

Remember to look in hidden rows, too.

Did you look for errors in any of those ranges?

Default Error problem

I have been going over and over all of the data and I can't find anything. I
tried the help function in excel and I learned that when I see "a black arrow
points from the selected cell to a worksheet icon" that the cell "is
referenced by a cell on another worksheet or workbook". I checked and there
are no references. I deleted all the references in the Name Manager also.

Are you sure that the formula you posted is what was used in the cell?

Your formula doesn't really look like:
=table(x1,y1)
does it?

This is exactly what is in the cell:
=SUMPRODUCT(--(Tables!$C$2:$C$2958=$A4),--(Tables!$D$2:$D$2958=$B4),--(Tables!$E$2:$E$2958="Yes"))
