count 2 criteria text or numbers

[BNT1 via OfficeKB.com]

Hi

Have looked on treads and have got the following which works great

=sumproduct(--(A1:a10="test"),--(b1:b10="test1"))

But when I substitute the real requirement from the file, GA01 and 105
respectively, I get 0.

The file is a .CSV, what ever that is, which is generated from a VTMS- AS400.

Does anyone know a way around this problem?

Regards

Brian

Are you putting the 105 inside the quotes of test1 ?

If you have numbers in column B of your file, then you should not use
quotes.

Hope this helps.

Glad to hear that it worked - thanks for feeding back.

Although SUMPRODUCT acts upon arrays, it does not (generally) need to
be committed with CTRL-SHIFT-ENTER.
