Scott - 22 Nov 2005 01:33 GMT SUMPRODUCT(--(DATA!$C$2:$C$1500=98366), DATA!$AB$2:$AB$1500)
This is what I have been trying to use. What I am doing is looking for a specific zip code in one column when I find it I want the value of another column to be added to a total.

Max - 22 Nov 2005 01:53 GMT As it is, think your formula should work. If it's somehow not returning the correct sums (or zeros), then the problem could be either that the (some) zip codes in col C are text numbers, and / or that (some) numbers within the col to be summed, col AB, are text numbers
One way is to try instead:
=SUMPRODUCT(--(TEXT(Data!$C$2:$C$1500,"00000")="98366"), --Data!$AB$2:$AB$15 00)

 Signature When I used the text idea cell looks like [ #value ] but I expect a certain value that I have calculated.

If you re-format the cell as "General" or "Number", then the zero would show

Scott - 22 Nov 2005 03:08 GMT This is the exact code I am using: =(SUMPRODUCT(--(DATA!$C$2:$C$1500=98366), --(DATA!$AB$2:$AB$1500))+SUMPRODUCT(--(DATA!$C$2:$C$1500=98367), --(DATA!$AB$2:$AB$1500)))/$B$417

=SUMPRODUCT((TEXT(Data!$C$2:$C$1500,"00000")="98366")+(TEXT(Data!$C$2:$C$150 0,"00000")="98367"), --Data!$AB$2:$AB$1500)/--$B$417 -- Rgds Max xl 97 --- Singapore, GMT+8 xdemechanik http://savefile.com/projects/236895 --

It's a good refinement, Biff. But going by the same tack that there could be a mixture of real/text numbers within col C, think a slight adjustment would be:
=SUMPRODUCT(--(ISNUMBER(MATCH(TEXT(Data!$C$2:$C$1500,"00000"),{"98366","9836 7"},0))),--Data!$AB$2:$AB$1500)/--$B$417

bpeltzer - 22 Nov 2005 03:11 GMT What you describe is what SUMIF does. The general format of that function is =sumif(where_to_look,what_to_look_for,what_to_add). In your example, =sumif(DATA!$C$2:$C$1500,98366,DATA!$AB$2:$AB$1500). If, by chance, your zip codes have been entered as text, you'll have to look for them as text, so you'd change 98366 to "98366"
