Advance function of excel to get sorted data

[Guest]

Name hit1 hit2 hit3 hit4
a 1 2 4 1
c 2 2 2 2
b 2 2 3 3
a 1 1 2 1
c 1 2 1 2
a 3 1 1 1
b 2 2 2 2

Which advance function of excel can be used to find How many times 'a' is
having '1' in each column(hit1,hit2,hit3,hit4) data?

=sumproduct(--(A$2:A$7="a"),--($B$2:$B$7=1))

repeat for the other columns.

Hi Tom,
This is Charlie again to bother you.
I remember last time you gave me solution for my excel query.

Name hit1 hit2 hit3
a x e a
c y d b
b t u h
a b t e
c t s w
a f t j
b e i r

Which advance function of excel can be used to find what text 'a' is
having in each column(hit1,hit2,hit3,hit4) data like
"=sumproduct(--(A$2:A$7="a"),--($B$2:$B$7=1))" to get product of numbers?
