Heloo everybody. The following is my data

G1= 90
=SUMPRODUCT(--(B2:B16>$G$1)) - giving 1 (actual - 0)
=COUNTIF(B2:B16,">"&$G$1) - resulting 0
When i remove the "a" in the columns sumproduct is giving the correct
answer. How to get correct answer from Sumproduct. Any suggestions, pls
With regards

If you including "a" the result should be 2 not 1 or 0, look a the third row
down you see a number 98 is greater than 90 and also any letter is greater
than 90

The formula below will ignore any letter
=SUMPRODUCT(--(ISNUMBER(B2:B16)),--(B2:B16>G1))

Thank you Mama for your suggestion. It works. I need clarification for
these formulae also.
f2==SUMPRODUCT(--(B2:B16>G1)*--(C2:C16>G1)*--(D216>G1)*--(E2:E16>G1))

=IF(ROWS($1:1)<=$F$2,INDEX($A$2:$A$16,SMALL(IF(($B$2:$B$16>=$G$1)*($C$2:$C$16>=$G$1)*($D$2:$D$16>=$G$1)*($E$2:$E$16>=$G$1),ROW($B$2:$B$16)-MIN(ROW($A$2:$A$16))+1),ROWS($1:1))),"")
extracts the IDno, that satisfies the criteria. Any suggestion.
Thank you Mama

Don't use "*--" on the first formula, you can either use "*" or ",--" of
course no quotes

ctrl+shift+enter (CSE) on your second formula

Thank you Mama. The first one works. But the second array formula is
extracting the IDno. having all "a". How to avoid it?
