Exclude Hidden Rows from Totals [How to?]

Denice, an Excel School student emailed me an interesting problem.

I have a bunch of data from which I want to find the sum of values that meet a criteria. But I also want to exclude any rows that are hidden.

Well, we know how to find sum of values that meet a criteria – we use either SUMIF, SUMIFS or SUMPRODUCT formula.

We also know how to find the sum of values while excluding hidden rows – we use SUBTOTAL Formula

But sum of values meeting a criteria and not in a hidden rows?!?

Of course, we can get such a total in excel, we just need to mash up SUBTOTAL Formula with SUMIFS (or SUMPRODUCT) and add a dash of coffee to it.

Step 1:Add an extra column to your data

Our first step is to find which rows are hidden and which are not. We can do this using SUBTOTAL Formula.

Assuming your data is in the range A2:B15

Add an extra column next to your data and write the formula =SUBTOTAL(102,B2). This formula will return “1” if cell B2 is visible and “0” if hidden.

Now drag the formula to fill rest of the cells in the extra column. At this point our data table should look like this:

Finding if a row is hidden or not using Excel SUBTOTAL Formula

Step 2 [Excel 2007+]: Write the SUMIFS Formula

Now, our summing criteria is very simple. We want to find the sum of all values where product=”Pod Gun” and Visible?=”1″

The formula is =SUMIFS(B2:B15.A2:A15,"Pod Gun",C2:C15,1)

If you do not get this formula, take a sip of that coffee and look long and hard it. If you need some clues, check out the Introduction to SUMIFS Excel Formula page.

Step 2 [All versions of Excel]: Write the SUMPRODUCT Formula

Just in case you do not have Excel 2007 or above, you have to write SUMPRODUCT formula instead of SUMIFS. Here is the formula:

=SUMPRODUCT((B2:B15)*(A2:A15="Pod Gun")*(C2:C15=1))

Again, take a sip, widen your eyes and try to gaze seriously at the pixels. Here is the Introduction to SUMPRODUCT Excel Formula page if you need help.

Step 3: Finish the coffee before it gets cold.

or if you are drinking cold coffee, finish it before it tastes funny.

I use “hide rows” option almost regularly to remove un-necessary info. from view. But I never had the need to exclude the values in hidden rows from my formulas.

What about you? How have you handled similar problems before?

    Nice roundup! Do you know of any one-page spreadsheets which will be updated by an administrator after each game? Would be nice to be able to print out the latest results whenever I feel like checking them as I probably won't be following closely every day.

    I actually haven't tried any of the above ones yet, but I thought I'd mention this one that I found which makes a nice one-page form you can fill in dynamically. http://exceltemplate.net/sports/world-cup-2010-schedule-and-scoresheet/

    I would like to recommend you these one: http://www.anotagol.com/
    You can choose your interface language (english, spanish, italian, portuguese, german or french) and your country for the timezone of match. I like it very much.

    Does anybody know how to re-create this(?): http://www.marca.com/deporte/futbol/mundial/sudafrica-2010/calendario-english.html
    ...or do you know where a template can be found? I am DYING to have something like this on my site. When I found it, I had been looking for the longest time for a circular calendar. I found a couple that weren't adequate. Then I stumbled upon this one and my eyes nearly popped out of my head. If anyone can lead me in the right direction, I would be eternally grateful!

    Thanks in advance!

    @Robert...

    Doing something like that is a lot of work. You can probably get it done with some hired help from a flash developer.

  10. Pedro Wave says:

    @Robert, the World Cup flash in the Spanish Marca newspaper is impresive, but not much as my own animated spreadsheet with the Goals of 2010 World Cup South Africa in Excel that I just published into my blog:

    And start to enter the goals of the rest of matches.

    Has anyone seen, or made, a Spreadsheet where you can record the scorers and see a 'top scorers' chart. Would be a nice enhancement

    @Neil... checkout this one http://www.inflexionary.com/sports/world-cup-2010-excel

    it uses macros to fetch scores from web (and provides very comprehensive analysis too)
