formula to count number of two different non-numeric responses
Ron,
That's a very interesting solution. I do not fully understand what the
{"yes", "na"} does and why a SUM(..) is required around the COUNTIF. Would
you mind teaching me, please?
I tried substituting the list in your formula {"yes", "na"} by a range eg
{D1:D2} where these cells would hold the values "yes" and "na". but that
wouldn't work.
Is there a way how to apply this extended flexiility to your formula?

Try this:
=SUM(COUNTIF(A1:A10,{"yes","na"}))
Is that something you can work with?
Post back if you have more questions.
