Default Counting Items

First, thank you for taking the time to respond. Your formula does count
text and numbers, but also counts nulls.

Try using COUNTIF, i.e.:

=COUNTIF(A:A,"<")

will count everything in column A which is not blank (or appears to be
blank, like a formula returning "")

Hope this helps.
