Formula for totaling 2 selections from a drop down in sheet summary
Best Answer
-
Hey @KHoward,
If you're only wanting to count cells that contain both those items, then you'll want to use COUNTIF, AND, CONTAINS in the sheet summary formula:
=COUNTIF(Dropdown:Dropdown, AND(CONTAINS("Learning Solutions", @cell), CONTAINS("Instructional Design", @cell)))
If you want to count cells that have either one of them, just change the AND to OR.
Hope this helps!
