SUMPRODUCT HELP

[STEVE A]

I'm using sumproduct to sort and count a database that meets certain
criteria. It was doing a great job until I needed to count a column with
variable criteria that I want to count.
=SUMPRODUCT((SORTFLE1!$B$2:$B$1000="Auto
Body")*(SORTFLE1!$D$2:$D$1000="Dodd")*(SORTFLE1!$G$2:$G$1000<>"ED,13,504,VA")*(SORTFLE1!$H$2:$H$1000="AM"))
It would be easier if I could just say not count (ED,13,504,VA) and count
everything else that wasn't blank. Any suggestions?

=COUNTA(G2:G1000)-COUNTIF(G2:G1000,"ED,13,504,VA")

Replace this:

(SORTFLE1!$G$2:$G$1000<>"ED,13,504,VA")

With this:

(ISNA(MATCH(SORTFLE1!$G$2:$G$1000,{"ED",13,504,"VA"},0)))

Note: that will count empty cells.

Try replacing this term in your sumproduct expression:
(SORTFLE1!$G$2:$G$1000<>"ED,13,504,VA")
with this
(ISERROR(MATCH(SORTFLE1!$G$2:$G$1000,{"ED";13;504;"VA"},0)))*(SORTFLE1!$G$2:$G$1000<>"")
