    sumproduct syntax problem

    Hello there everyone- first post!

    I have a problem that I have spent a few hours on and am hoping some clever soul can help me with.

    I have a large spreadsheet like this

    Nephrology Printed resent 26.05.09 chased
    Nephrology 28.04.09 resent 26.05.09 Yes
    Nephrology 28.04.09 resent 26.05.09 Yes
    Nephrology 28.04.09 resent 26.05.09 Yes
    Nephrology 28.04.09 resent 26.05.09 Yes
    Nephrology 28.04.09 resent 26.05.09 Yes

    There are plenty of other columns, but these are key. The first column is the service type, of which there are 40.
    I want to have another worksheet that totals all the entries in the third column that don't say 'yes', for each service. So, in this case the first line of my new workbook would say:
    Nephrology 1


    Can anyone help?

    Your post does not comply with Rule 1 of our Forum RULES. Your post title should accurately and concisely describe your problem, not your anticipated solution. Use terms appropriate to a Google search. Poor thread titles, like Please Help, Urgent, Need Help, Formula Problem, Code Problem, and Need Advice will be addressed according to the OP's experience in the forum: If you have less than 10 posts, expect (and respond to) a request to change your thread title. If you have 10 or more posts, expect your post to be locked, so you can start a new thread with an appropriate title.
    To change a Title on your post, click EDIT then Go Advanced and change your title, if 2 days have passed ask a moderator to do it for you.
    Where there is a will there are many ways.

    Re: Do I need vlookup for this?? HELP!

    This can be solved with a SUMPRODUCT function

    =SUMPRODUCT(--(A1=$A$1:$A$13),--($E$1:$E$13<>"Yes"))

    You have to put it in the other sheet yourselve.
