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
What does not work with your first formula? It seems alright to me.
For your second formula you shouldn't use a cell reference because it will only check B4.
=IF(VLOOKUP(C$1&" "&C$2,'Attendance entry'!$A$2:$B$40,2,FALSE)="H","H",SUMPRODUCT(('Attendance entry'!$A$2:$A$40=C$1&" "&C$2)*ISNUMBER(SEARCH(","&$A3&",",","&'Attendance entry'!$B$2:$B$40&","))))
Thank you for the response.
I am enclosing the sheet after the formula update. #Name error
Also cells A42:B42 (ie, Saturday 1 - Saturday 7) does not figure in the formula.
Thank you

Dear Detlef,
Sorry for the trouble, again I edited the file in Libre Office probably that caused the error.
Your formula works now, thanks a lot.
The file attached.
It was indeed a wonderful experience working with you.
Thank you very much
JIM
Again this a broken file showing no formulas but only #NAME?.
