I used SUMPRODUCT formula to retrieve value from column C2:E4 which contains a number and a text value, but I want to ignore the text
Example of my desired result:
A B C D E F G H
NO. NAME YES NO YES YES 80
1. Dave 10 20 x
2. Sue x 10 30
3. Hans 10 y 30
In H2, this formula works when there is no Text cells:
=SUMPRODUCT(($C$1:$E$1=G1)*($C$2:$E$4))
In this code I have tried to use ISNUMBER to ignore text (x and y), but it doesn't work. I have already tried several ways to make it work but it doesn't.
Please help.
pertaining to the use of SUMPRODUCT
and ISNUMBER
formulae, this is what i got after testing.
=SUMPRODUCT(($C$1:$E$1=G1)*--ISNUMBER($C$2:$E$4),($C$2:$E$4))
the double negative helps to ignore the text values (x and y), while adding an additional array helps to compute the sum correctly (without the array, the output gives 4
).
hope this helps!
