Default Count Num and Sum functions as a variable


It's hard to say how you should add this to your code as you didn't post any
code (which is why I gave you the general-type answer I did. Here is a
made-up example that may help you see how to integrate it into your code.

RangeTotalVariable = WorksheetFunction.Sum(Range("A1:A100"))

CountNumbersVariable = WorksheetFunction.Count(Range("A1:A100"))

CountTextCellsVariable = WorksheetFunction.CountA(Range("A1:A100"))

Of course, these constructions can be more complicated than I have shown
depending on what you are trying to do.

Rick,
I have no idea what you just said. I know a little programming but, what
is
WorksheetFunction Property?

I items listed when I press F2 in the code window, but how do I add this
to
my code?

Look at the WorksheetFunction Property (of the Application object)... the
count and sum functions are all available through it.

I have a sheet that I need to count the number of items in a column and
also
sum them. I can add a formula to cell, collect the values to a
variable,
then
clear the cell, but I was trying to figure out a more elegant internal
code.
I wanted to caputure the number of items in the column without
looping.
problem is that some rows are blank, and Selection.Rows.Count brings
back
all
rows.

Thanks
