0














I have been trying to get this to work using the above example to no avail. basically, I want to add the values to words selected from a dropdown and sum in the corresponding cell (next one over). please let be know what I am doing wrong. please note it should be able to sum multiple selections displaying in the same cell.



=SUM(COUNTIF(A1,{"Health and Safety”, “District Operations","Public Facing","Agency Revenue","Litigation","Audit"})*{6,5,4,3,2,1})
