Sumproduct
Having 'brain freeze' with sumproduct...my formula is:
=SUMPRODUCT(--L2:L306=$L309)--(N2:N306=N$308) column 'L' is a list of departments (and I can list as either numeric or alpha) Column 'N" is dates What I want is a the number of times the department matches the date in N$308 (all dates are in date format). The 'value' error appears to be in the dates. |

Corrected structu
=SUMPRODUCT(--(L2:L306=$L309),--(N2:N306=N$308)) -- Best Regards, Luke M *Remember to click "yes" if this post helped you!* "ronnomad" wrote: Having 'brain freeze' with sumproduct...my formula is: =SUMPRODUCT(--L2:L306=$L309)--(N2:N306=N$308) column 'L' is a list of departments (and I can list as either numeric or alpha) Column 'N" is dates What I want is a the number of times the department matches the date in N$308 (all dates are in date format).

Perhaps you intended to say not
=SUMPRODUCT(--L2:L306=$L309)--(N2:N306=N$308) but =SUMPRODUCT(--(L2:L306=$L309),--(N2:N306=N$308)) ? If you are still getting a #VALUE! error after that, you'll need to check that your dates really are dates, and not text strings. =ISNUMBER(cellref) and =ISTEXT(cellref) will tell you. -- David Biddulph "ronnomad" wrote in message ...

Sorry, didn't work. The "value' error is gone but the result is wrong.
More info: there are 14 different departments and a total of 305 lines. I know the first dept is a total of 9 lines of which 4 should correspond to the date parameter. The result I get with the new formula is 109. And, when I look at all 14 depts the total is 1,663. I have a feeling that it is the way I have the date set up but, since the date is really a number, I'm not sure that's correct. Ron R.
