(I am simplifying the data to make explaining easier)

I have a table G60:G75. Some with data some with blanks. I then have H60:H75 all with data. I need the sum of the number of times the data in G60:G75 matches the data in H60:H75.

1 5
2 2
3 3
4
4 5

So for the above table the answer I am looking for is 2 as the 2 in G61 = H61 and the 3 in G62 = H62.

Any help will be appreciated

Ok last time...I hope

I am trying to show the 2 numbers formatted like this 6 - 9 showing how many match first (6) and how many do not (9). I used this
=SUMPRODUCT(--($G$60:$G$74=$H$60:$H$74))&" - "&SUMPRODUCT(--($G$60:$G$74<>$H$60:$H$74)) Now I need to add the *(G60:G75<>"")) so not count the blanks if any. Where do I put that part of the formula. I've tried several different ways and keep getting an error.

Excel Facts

Why are there 1,048,576 rows in Excel?
The Excel team increased the size of the grid in 2007. There are 2^20 rows and 2^14 columns for a total of 17 billion cells.
You've totally lost me, can you please post some data with the expected results?

Sorry. I'm no good explaining in type.

The first result is when data in column G matches data in column H. So for example "6" with this formula =SUMPRODUCT(--($G$60:$G$74=$H$60:$H$74)) then I want the cells that do not match G versus H so that would be "9" with this formula SUMPRODUCT(--($G$60:$G$74<>$H$60:$H$74)) to put a dash between them I did used &" - "$ and then got the result of "6 - 9" , but I need to add another formula that DOES NOT match blank cells in G with blank in H. With that I use
*($G60:$G74<>"") so now I need to tie all 3 formula's together while ending with the "6 - 9" formatted answer.

Hope that is better.
Thanks again.

Here is my example table


<colgroup><col style="mso-width-source:userset;mso-width-alt:3254;width:67pt" width="89"> <col style="mso-width-source:userset;mso-width-alt:2962;width:61pt" width="81"> </colgroup><tbody>

Note that the 3 in the "3 -12" means 3 cells in the 1st column match 3 cells in the 2nd column. The 12 means 12 do not. To come up with the "3 - 12" I use:
=SUMPRODUCT(--($G$60:$G$74=$H$60:$H$74))&" - "&SUMPRODUCT(--($G$60:$G$74<>$H$60:$H$74))

But, Notice the 4th row from the bottom (above the matching 9's). Both 1st and 2nd columns are blank but the above formula is counting it as the 3rd match when I only want 2 to show. So I am looking for "2 - 11" instead of "3 -12" To not read the blank cells I have the formula *(G60:G74<>"")) which does not add the matching blank cells to my totals. I am trying to figure out how to add the *(G60:G75<>"")) into the formula (1st formula) =SUMPRODUCT(--($G$60:$G$74=$H$60:$H$74))&" - "&SUMPRODUCT(--($G$60:$G$74<>$H$60:$H$74))

Hopefully that explains it.

Ok, how about
=SUMPRODUCT(($G$60:$G$74=$H$60:$H$74)*($G$60:$G$74<>""))&" - "&SUMPRODUCT(($G$60:$G$74<>$H$60:$H$74)*($H$60:$H$74<>"")*($G$60:$G$74<>""))
