Countif w/ Multiple Criteria

P

Patrick_KC

I have a list of accounts with top 5 brands in each account. I'm trying to
count the number of occurrences where my client has #1 brand, #2 brand, etc.
But when I use countif function, I don't know how to list all of the clients
brands as criteria. Any one of 9 brands could be in the rankings.

How do I use countif with 9 different "options" as criteria. I tried the OR
function, but it didn't work unless I had errors in my formula.

Any help is appreciated.

Let's try something simple. Quickly add a column on the extreme right of your
data with 1 on all the rows. Now simply create a Pivot to get count of brands
- in the data - you can keep the sum of the column with 1 on all the rows.

Hope, this heps. If not, please be more clear in decribing how exactly yoour
worksheet(s) are laid out.

Thanks,
