How do I count cells that contain one of several specific numb
Thank you very much. The formula did work but I was hoping to understand it
a little better. I'd like to better understand how you formulated especially
the first part of the formula so that for example, I could modify it if I
wanted to examine data in the same row but maybe not every third column. Can
you help or direct me to where I can get more information about forming these
type of formulas. Thanks, again.

Well, now....It seems that your first example had the all of the data in the
same column, but what you really wanted was an examination of data in a
single row.
Try this:
=SUMPRODUCT((MOD(COLUMN(H8:AH8),3)=2)*ISNUMBER(MAT CH(H8:AH8,{1,2,3,4,5},0)))
If you change the range, you'll probably need to tweak the MOD function.
Currently, it calculates the remainder of each cell's column number divided
by 3. If that remainder = 2, then the cell's value is tested, otherwise it's
ignored.
Does that help?

It seems a little complicated but I tried it. I got an error. Please let me
know what you think?
=SUMPRODUCT((ROW(H8:AH8)={1,4,7,10,13,16,19,22,25} )*ISNUMBER(MATCH(H8:AH8,{1,2,3,4,5},0)))

cells are not adjacent. I am counting from every 3rd column cells which
contain 1, 2, 3, 4, or 5. I tried using the
=COUNTIF(A1,A4,A7,A10,A13,A16,"1:5") but that obviously didn't work. Any
advise?
