    Compare and Sum

    I have two columns of numerical data. I'm trying to sum the values of a column only when they are equal to the corresponding values in the adjacent column. For example, if I have two columns:

    3 4
    2 9
    3 7
    7 7
    6 2
    5 5

    The sum would be 12.
    I haven't been able to get this to work quite right using the SUMIF variants.
    Any ideas will help. Thanks.

    Like so:

    =SUMPRODUCT(--($A$1:$A$6=$B$1:$B$6), $A$1:$A$6)

    =SUMPRODUCT(($A$1:$A$6=$B$1:$B$6)*$A$1:$A$6)
