Sumproduct with blanks
I have been using SUMPRODUCT for a while, and so far it's great. I'm trying
to use it on data range with blanks. My data is arranged as 52 weeks/rows for each location, but there are a few blank rows in between locations (not completely blank, but there's row for subtotal and other blanks). I'm using sumproduct to pull data from this workbook into another workbook. Here's my formula: =SUMPRODUCT(--([MyModel.xls]ByPlant!$B$10:$B$1231=C5),--([MyModel.xls]ByPlant!$B$10:$B$1231""),--([MyModel.xls]ByPlant!$C$10:$C$1231=D5),--([MyModel.xls]ByPlant!$C$10:$C$1231""),--([MyModel.xls]ByPlant!$M$10:$M$1231=$E$3),--([MyModel.xls]ByPlant!$M$10:$M$1231""),--([MyModel.xls]ByPlant!$AF$10:$AF$1231),--([MyModel.xls]ByPlant!$AF$10:$AF$1231"")) I keep getting #Value error. But if change the range for the first location from 10:1231 to 10:61 I will get the correct result. I will be pulling data from many workbooks, and I'd really like to do the entire range and ignore the blanks. Can someone tell me why my formula is not working, or is there another way to incorporate the blanks into sumproduct? For other reasons, the data cannot be rearranged... in other words those blank rows have to be there. Thanks. -- when u change the way u look @ things, the things u look at change. |

So, you are basically omitting the ' "" ' portion on the last part of the
formula... It didn't work. As I said the formula works as is if I break the range into smaller ranges. The only thing I can think of is (and someone can help me with this): The data is organized in lists... for every 52 rows there's a header (text) and a footer (number) subtotal then a few blank rows. Will the text header cause the formula not to work? -- when u change the way u look @ things, the things u look at change.

Don't put the double dash in front of your array with numbers. The double
dash says treat it as 1's & 0's, which is not what you want to happen. ,--([MyModel.xls]ByPlant!$AF$10:$AF$1231), needs to be just ,([MyModel.xls]ByPlant!$AF$10:$AF$1231), Also, if you think about the logic, there's no need for all the "" checks.

for every 52 rows there's a header (text) and a
footer (number) subtotal then a few blank rows. Will the text header cause the formula not to work? Look at this array: --([MyModel.xls]ByPlant!$AF$10:$AF$1231) I'll bet you're missing something!

I keep getting #Value error. I presume you are getting the #VALUE error from the 2nd-to-last argument, --([MyModel.xls]ByPlant!$AF$10:$AF$1231). Change that to simply [MyModel.xls]ByPlant!$AF$10:$AF$1231 -- not "--" and no parentheses. Normally, text is not permitted in arithmetic expressions, e.g. --AF10:AF1231. But SUMPRODUCT tolerates arguments that are text, treating them as zero. With the change above, you can also remove the last argument, --([MyModel.xls]ByPlant!$AF$10:$AF$1231""). I presume you added that in an vane attempt to avoid the #VALUE error. It becomes superfluous with the above change. Finally, you seem to misunderstand why "--" is used sometimes. It is only needed to convert boolean values (TRUE and FALSE) to numeric values, which SUMPRODUCT requires. Thus, you need "--" in SUMPRODUCT arguments only before comparison expressions and logic functions like AND and OR. ----- original message ----- "EZ" wrote in message ...

Don't put the double dash in front of your array
with numbers.The double dash says treat it as 1's & 0's, --([MyModel.xls]ByPlant!$AF$10:$AF$1231) Well, not quite. The array gets coerced to 1 and 0 if there's a logical comparrison taking place. Like --(AF10="x"). At first I thought the OP was getting a count so I thought they were missing a logical test: --([MyModel.xls]ByPlant!$AF$10:$AF$1231=???)
