Sum if cells contain both x and y in Excel

by

This tutorial shows how to Sum if cells contain both x and y in Excel using the example below;

Formula

=SUMIFS(range1,range2,"*cat*",range2,"*rat*")

Explanation

To sum if cells contain both x and y (i.e. contain “cat” and “rat”, in the same cell) you can use the SUMIFS function.

Worked Example:   Sum if greater than in Excel

In the example shown, the formula in F5 is:

=SUMIFS(C4:C8,B4:B8,"*cat*",B4:B8,"*rat*")

How this formula works

The SUMIFS function is based on AND logic and this behavior is automatic. We just need to supply two range/criteria pairs, both operating on the same range (B4:B11).

Worked Example:   Sum if date is between in Excel

For both criteria (contains “rat”, contains “cat”) we use an asterisk, which is a wildcard that matches “one or more characters”. We put an asterisk at the start and end to allow the formula to match “cat” and “rat” wherever they appear in the cell.

Worked Example:   Sum if between in Excel

When both criteria return TRUE in the same row, SUMIFS sums the value in column C.

Note that SUMIFs is not case-sensitive.
