How can I COUNTIF values in Column A = "Manchester" AND values in column B =
"Overdue"
i.e I have a sheet with lots of locations in Column A, and Overdue or "OK"
in Column B, but i want to know how many overdues there arevfor particular
locations!
 
Hi,
To count the numbers only,try this
=countif(A1:A1000,"Manchester")+countif(B1:B1000,"Overdue")

Thanking you,

Hi KS

this will give a count of ALL Manchester plus ALL overdue - not overdue in
Manchester.
i.e.
Location Status
Manchester Paid
Machester Overdue
Lincolnshire Overdue

you're formula will return 4 not 1

Another way to summarize the data is by using a pivot table. There are
instructions in Excel's help, and some instructions and links here:

Create a pivot table with Location in the row area, and Status in the
column area. Add another copy of Location to the Data area, where it
will become Count of Location.
