Sum If question

[Lindsey]

I have a spreadsheet with multiple colums and I want to sum if there is a
certain word in each column. I feel like this shold be fairly easy, this is
the formula I have now. Thanks!

=sumif( $a$100:$f$100, and( CPP, TSF, HDJ), $f$100)

Hi,
I don't understand if you have the CPP word in one column you want to
summarize another one, but that is not what your formula is saying, if the
below doesn't work please send an example
try

=SUM(SUMIF($a$100:$f$100,{CPP, TSF, HDJ},$f$100))

 

[Lindsey]

Sorry, the CPP, TSF, HDJ are all in different columns. Let me know if you
still need an example, thanks!

 

[Eduardo]

Hi,
yes I need an example
if in columns A100 to F100 you have the word CPP or the others what column
do you want to summarize

 

[Lindsey]

Example

A B C D
2 CPP JNY $4
4 GHY MSP $2
2 PWQ NOL $8
8 CPP MSP $9

I want it to sum if there is an 8 in column A, CPP in column B, and MSP in
column C. The sum needs to come out of column D. Please let me know if you
need anything else, thanks!

If you want to sum col D based on these criteria :
8 in column A, CPP in column B, MSP in column C, try

=SUMPRODUCT(--(A2:A30=8),--(B2:B30="CPP"),--(C2:C30="MSP"),D230)

adjust the range to suit yours

Hi Lindsey
Assuming that the CPP, MSP and 8 are in the columns as described

=SUMPRODUCT(--(A:A=8),--(B:B="CPP"),--(C:C="MSP"),D)

If you are not using excel 2007 do

=SUMPRODUCT(--(A1:A100=8),--(B1:B100="CPP"),--(C1:C100="MSP"),D1100)

What does -- mean?

=-TRUE gives -1, =--TRUE gives 1
=-FALSE gives 0, =--FALSE gives 0
1 and 0 are what you want to multiply by in your SUMPRODUCT.

Thanks! I don't know why, but my Excel did this, but the formula only worked
when I had the data on the same spreadsheet as the formula. I have 2003
Excel, but it works, so I am happy.
