Default CountIF() in Worksheet B while referencing cells in Worksheet A


PDBerger,

Thanks for the advice. It is stupid how such simple things can elude
me. I'm so busy looking for difficult answer when an easy one is right
in front of me!

Now that I know how to do that I have another obstacle to tackle.

My clients have two items that I track and I currently have 90 clients.
These items are found in individual rows.

Column A is not a consideration in my delima, Column B identifies a
client with a number (Not needed either IMO). Column C is useful.

Column C repeats this pattern.

Client Name
Client URL
#1 Item
#2 Item
Client Name
Client URL
#1 Item
#2 Item

So on and so forth with the exception that sometimes a client may have
more than 2 items.

Column D & E are also not needed for this. They simply provide sign up
date and expiration date.

The next three columns is the data I need to easily tally.

April March
Client Name Google Yahoo MSN Google Yahoo MSN
Client URL
#1 Item 4 12 29 8 17
13
#2 Item 8 1 20 5 2
13
Client Name
Client URL
#1 Item 13 9 1 11 19
2
#2 Item 48 3 108 78 10
0
Client Name
Client URL
#1 Item 3 9 13 3 9
13
#2 Item 1 1 2 1 1
2
#3 Item 18 3 16 18 3
16

That is the data that is collected. Every month we get a report that
displays Growth / Loss %. This is only based on #1 Item though.

Making this further difficult, As you noticed, The collumns repeat
themselfs with the exception of old data moving to the right.
Eventually Columns F, G & H come to represent a new month and I, J & K
represent the previous month and so on and so forth.

And as much as I hate to say it, making this even further difficult,
our %'s are reported as follows:

Clients after 8 months
Clients after 2 years
Clients between 2 and 3 years
Clients between 1 and 2 years
Clients between 8 months and 1 year


Occasionally there is a break in the rows after clients to specify:
"3 YEARS (Clients above this line have had a Marketing Package 3 years
or longer) 3 YEARS"

and so fourth.

I'd like to automate this proccess so I don't have to do all the
tallying myself. The CountIF() is great but what esle should I be
looking at to figure out this jumble of goodness? (Sarcamn on the
goodness)

Any comments would be appreciative.

JJ
