I have a Calc spreadsheet bookkeeping system which works well for me. I have to save it in Excel format to send to my accountant so he can access and read it. There are no problems with the sheets which detail my differing bank account and credit card transaction lists, but the most important page, the REPORT PAGE, dies not work.

On this report page you enter a start date and an end date and the totals for differing categories are displayed. In Calc, I use the SUMPRODUCT formula, as in this example:
=SUMPRODUCT(chqDEBIT, chqCODE="b", chqDATE>=$D$4, chqDATE<=$D$5)

where this formula adds up all the cheque account DEBITS where the category code is "b" and the transaction falls between the Start Date D4 and the End Date D5

Excel does have a SUMPRODUCT( ) formula but my Calc version of SUMPRODUCT formula does not work in Excel. If I take out the qualifying parameters I do get a total, but without the filters that total is meaningless to the accountant.

If anyone can educate me on why the Cal version of SUMPRODUCT does not work in Excel, and what I have to do to make it work, I would be very much obliged.

Many thanks,  James
