Re: IFERROR - HLOOKUP- IF formula error

Jim,

 

first some preparations:

Remove the merged cells in "consolidated sheet" row 1 and type the weekday in every seven cells.

Sheet "sort" is not needed anymore.

This formula in "consolidated sheet" C3 and copy down and to the right:

 

=SUMPRODUCT(('Attendance entry'!$A$3:$A$41=C$1&" "&C$2)*ISNUMBER(SEARCH(","&$A3&",",","&'Attendance entry'!$B$3:$B$41&"!,")))

*

    Thank you for the reply Detlef.

    I have done the corrections suggested by you. Now a #Name error shows up, anything related to the formula syntax? 

    Also will the row between Monday 7 and Tuesday 1 in the "Attendance entry" sheet matter?

    File enclosed

    Thank you for the help

      The file is broken. It doesn't show the formulas, only the #NAME? error.

        Sorry Detlef for the broken file. May be because I edited the file in libre office (?)
        Your solution works superbly now.
        Thank you very much
        Have a nice day
        JIM
