Has anyone noticed a changed to the logic or Summing blank cells using the SUMIFS(? the criteria used to be "<>", but i couldnt get it to work. Finally i tried "<>""", and it worked correctly. But thats not the way i remember the formula. Has anyone else noticed the logic changed for summing blank cells?

-> Not Working: =SUMIFS(A1:A100, B1:B100,"<>")

-> But this works now??? =SUMIFS(A1:A100, B1:B100,"<>""")

Weird

Thanks

If you have a list of cities in A2:A100, use Data, Geography. Then =A2.Population and copy down.
