Count different collumns

Dear members of the forum,

I have the following problem:

I have a huge Excel File (400k entries) in which one collumn contains a location, another one a number, and 4 collumns which contain names (most times 2 names and two collums are empty).
Now I have to count the numbers in each location, for the name that appears in the first collumn of the names. If there are more than 2 names it should not be counted.

For example:

I have location 1 five times, with the numbers (5, 5, 10, 10, 15) and the names (A, B, A, A, B).
Then I would like to have as a solution:

Name A in location 1: 25
Name B in location 1: 20

Is something like this even possible?
I have already filtered the file after the locations and could make additional papers for each location, so that i would just have to count the names.

Thank you in advance!

Hi there.

A picture is worth 1,000 words. An Excel sheet is worth 1,000 non-editable pictures.

Please read the yellow banner about sample worksheets, at the top of the screen. Act on its guidelines and post a SMALL sample sheet complete with an explanation and some expected results.

Try this:

=SUMIFS($B$2:$B$11,$A$2:$A$11,C17,$C$2:$C$11,C15,$D$2:$D$11,"<>",$E$2:$E$11,"")

Try this, one size fits all for multiple locations, etc. EACH shaded cell = different formula.

Where included, change the range from : $A$2:$E$11 to the rela range. Then select B14:D17. Drag down until no further entries are seen.

You may wish to remove my pastel shading!

Glad to have helped.
