=SUM(COUNTIFS(D5:D15,"Mountain Blue",A5:A15,"*"&{1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9}&"xWindow*")*{1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9})

Counting window colours from Accessories Colour column.

this works fine if its 1-9 in the Extras … but when its 10+ the result is wrong.
What is the best way to make {1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9} … 1-99

Below:
Left 2 columns data, right 2 are results using above

Excel Facts

Test for Multiple Conditions in IF?
Use AND(test, test, test, test) or OR(test, test, test, ...) as the logical_test argument of IF.
ROW(INDIRECT("1:99") will make an array {1,2,3...99}

=SUM(COUNTIFS(D5:D15,"Mountain Blue",A5:A15,"*"&ROW(INDIRECT("1:99")&"xWindow*")*ROW(INDIRECT("1:99"))

But then 12xWindow will be counted twice as 2xWindow and 12xWindow
I don't know how to get around that. I'm sure someone clever will figure it out.

If each entry in the EXTRAS column began with a space character, then this would work...

=SUM(COUNTIFS(D5:D15,"Mountain Blue",A5:A15,"* " & ROW(INDIRECT("1:99")&"xWindow*")*ROW(INDIRECT("1:99"))

I tried to apply this but Excel rejected it..
see below.. to my sheet as above..
=SUM(COUNTIFS(B5:B15,"Mountain Blue",A5:A15,"* " & ROW(INDIRECT("1:99")&"xWindow*")*ROW(INDIRECT("1:99"))

Just gave an Excel error popup, like Excel couldn't read it.. no result at all..

Any ideas?
