SUMIF-selecting certain cells

[matt_the_brum]

In a spreadsheet I have a date, price and a column where I put an x i
an order is placed. I first wanted to sum all the prices with an x i
the next column. Dates are in column D, prices in G and orders in H.
This works

=SUMIF(Enquiries!H:H,"x",Enquiries!G:G)

Now I only want to sum the orders in Jan. Not sure if you can write
SUMIF with a condition that the date in column D must be a Jan date, s
I simply selected the cells manually to get this.

=SUMIF(Enquiries!H2:H9,Enquiries!H11:H35,Enquiries!H37,Enquiries!H39,Enquiries!H41:H42,"x",Enquiries!G:G)

It doesn't work though.

Any help gratefully recieved

Hi
SUMIF only accepts one condition. You may use SUMPRODUCT instead:
=SUMPRODUCT((Enquiries!H1:H1000="x")*(MONTH(Enquiries!D11000)=1)
,Enquiries!G1:G1000)

Sorry, but its replying with #VALUE

Matt,

It works in the rest of the UK.

Try reducing the range, say from 1000 to 10, and see if you still get the
problem. If so, in the formula bar, and select each part (
(EnquiriesH1:H1000="x") for example), hit the F9 key,a nd work out which
part is generating #VALUE.

Thanks for help. Tried to reduce range but still reporting #VALUE.
I'm going to tackle the problem a different way, see new thread

Hi
have you checked that column D consists on real dates. Maybe you can
post some example rows of your data?
