Try something like this:

For a list of text values, or blanks, in A10: A20

A1: =SUMPRODUCT(--(LEN(A10:A20)20))=ROWS(A10:A20)

That formula returns TRUE if all of the referenced cells contain values and
the length of those values is greater than 20 characters. It returns FALSE
if any of the cells is blank or has a length of 20 characters or less.

Does that help?
