Comparing the values in two cells, then counting how many differ

[cgm02]

Any ideas on how I might compare two columns based on a conditional formula,
then count the number of occurences?
Col 1 - 0
Col 2 - 6
Number of rows in worksheet: 4000+

I'd like to be able to conditionally account for any value in col 1 that is
0 and has a positive number in col 2 (I don't need to report the number in
col 2). I'd then like to have a count for the number of times this condition
occured.

Thanks for any help!

Try this:

=SUMPRODUCT((A1:A4000=0)*(B1:B4000>0))

Hope this helps.

Assuming there are no empty cells in column 1 and no text entries in column
2.

=SUMPRODUCT(--(A1:A4000=0),--(B1:B4000>0))
