Folks:



I have a single column of information. Only SOME of the cells within this
column contain a string of alphabetic characters.
Some cells are empty. For example:

Column A
ABC

ZEP


POW
ZAP


* What Excel command would allow me to count the # of cells that actually
contain alphabetic information within a certain range like A2:A100



Thanks,
John.
