SUMPRODUCT WITH WILDCARD

[Guest]

Can someone assist me with a formula to sumproduct with wildcards, please?

=SUMPRODUCT(--(F:F="NPT*"),--(A:A="PC*"))

I've got this but it doesn't work!!

=sumproduct(--(left(f1:F100,3)="npt"),--(left(a1:a100,2)="pc"))

You can't use whole columns with this kind of formula.

hi!

SUMIF can use wildcards, but only for one test, but SUMPRODUCT doesn't
support wildcards directly.

Thanks Dave, but I'm getting #N/A and I can see there are some rows with this
info!

Can you offer any suggestion?

What formula did you use?

Do you have #n/a's in either of those two ranges?

Dave,

Brilliant!

It was the #N/A in column F!

Sorted it, many thanks.
