Hi Mike,

Is this the original formula?

 

=IF(SUM(IF('Test Plan'!$I$13:$I$10134="NB",1,0))>0,SUM(IF('Test 
Plan'!$I$13:$I$10134="NB",1,0)),0)+IF(SUM(IF('Test 
Plan'!$I$13:$I$10134="QU",1,0))>0,SUM(IF(TestPlan!$I$13:$I$10134="QU",1,0)),0)+IF(SUM(IF('Test
 Plan'!$I$13:$I$10134="SLIQ",1,0))>0,SUM(IF('Test 
Plan'!$I$13:$I$10134="SLIQ",1,0)),0)+IF(SUM(IF('Test 
Plan'!$I$13:$I$10134="PQB",1,0))>0,SUM(IF(TestPlan!$I$13:$I$10134="PQB",1,0)),0)-A3

 

It seems to be made up of 4 parts.

Each part is tested to see if it's result is greater than zero.

If yes, then sum the occurrances.

If no, then zero.

The four results are then added together.

Finally, A3 is subtracted from the total.

 

Is this about right?

Do you want to restrict the process to only those rows which have an '11' in 
Column U?

And can I assume that the '14' in IF(AND('TEST PLAN'!$U$14:$U$10134="11" should 
really be a '13'?

 

Dave.
