Okay. I think you'd better give us the exact formulas in your A10 to A20
'cause I can't replicate the problem you're having. Works for me whether
"TRUE" or TRUE.

That certainly will work but the Countif is more efficient.

I changed the text true to the boolean TRUE.

I really appreciate everyones help but can anyone answer the question as
to
why -

=Countif(A10:A20,"true")

returns 0 ???

Thanks

Try this

=SUMPRODUCT(--(A10:A20="TRUE"))

Does it help?

Hello Guys..

I have a range of IF formulas in A10:A20 that return either a text
"True"
(not a boolean) or a blank "" .

There are several "Trues" in the range but when I use -

=Countif(A10:A20,"True")

I get a result of 0.

Why is this?

Thanks
