Default problem (maybe simple) displaying certain text

Thanks All,

Gary got it. It was the "&" that I was missing. I, for some reason, was
trying to use "+".
Too much PERL programming lately...

Thanks Gary!

how about this in the cell

="(" & COUNTIF(A3:A30,"1")&"- "&COUNTIF(A3:A30,"0")&")"

Hi all,

This maybe a simple fix, but I cannot seem to get it.

I have a range, let's say A3:A30, each containing a 1 or 0. I would like
to have a cell show how many 1's and how many 0's in the following
format: (x-y) where x =1's and y = 0's. Any ideas?

I tried using =COUNTIF(A3:A30,"1") in a cell and =COUNTIF(A3:A30,"0") in
another, then displaying those numbers in a cell, but that didn't work
either. Any ideas?

Thanks,

Rick
