Bob,

Your formula is almost getting me there. Except if I put text in a cell it
gives me #VALUE!

Thank you,


Steven

I tried it and it worked with SUM function but not simply, only when
entered
as an array formula.

I see why you did it now (I must admit to wondering about that), but I
would
use ISNUMBER, then it simply becomes

=SUM(IF(ISNUMBER(B6:C9),IF(ABS(B6:C9)<100,1)))

the intent is nice and clear then.

Thanks Bob, now I see your point!

I think that we must use an array formula. I tried your normal formula
=SUMPRODUCT(--(B6:K300<""),--(ABS(B6:K300)<100))

but it returned #VALUE error because of not handling text cells.

If you are going to use an array formula, you might as well use SUM as
SUMPRODUCT

Sorry, I forgot to mention that replace my test range with B6:K300

I have numbers in range B6:K300 and also some text. I want to
count
the
number of occurances of cells with an absolute value of < 100.

Thank you,
