This works in Excel too.

I completely forgot about that approach, but it works great.
Thanks so much for reminding me of it.

Why doesn't

=sum(if(and($g$2:$g$30000>=h2,$g$2:$g$30000<h3),1,0))

work? It should, right?

This looks okay.  If you're getting TRUE or FALSE then I guess you're 
missing some arguments to one of the IF functions - double-check them to 
 make sure all of them have three arguments (test, if-true, if-false).

Ah. I had just failed to include a default case when none of
the IFs were true. When I added that in, all was fixed.

Thanks very much for your help. If I may toss in one
unrelated question here: I can't figure out how to add
x-axis data to a chart. I thought that selecting both the
x-axis column and the y-axis one would do the job, but
Gnumeric treats both columns as data series, and numbers the
x-axis with the number of data points. What am I missing?

Thanks very much,
Steve
