Which version of Excel are you using? If you have Excel 2007 or later try COUNTIFS<br />
<br />
=COUNTIFS(Responses!$A$2:$<wbr />A$1000,$B7<wbr />,Responses<wbr />!$B$2:$B$1<wbr />000,L$4)<br />

OK, in that case I recommend Saqib's approach, add another check to the SUMPRODUCT formula<br />

<div class="content wysiwyg-content">
The below formula is returning a number but it should be 0. &nbsp;Please see attached test file. &nbsp;The cell in yellow is the one I'm having problems with. &nbsp;It seems to be counting blank cells as 0.<br />
<br />
=SUMPRODUCT((Responses!$A$<wbr />2:$A$1000=<wbr />$B7)*(Resp<wbr />onses!$B$2<wbr />:$B$1000=L<wbr />$4))<br />
<br />
Any help would be greatly appreciated!<br />

The below formula is returning a number but it should be 0.  Please see attached test file.  The cell in yellow is the one I'm having problems with.  It seems to be counting blank cells as 0.

=SUMPRODUCT((Responses!$A$2:$A$1000=$B7)*(Responses!$B$2:$B$1000=L$4))

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks.
