hi
try using the address of the first instance of the word sheduled instead of
the word itself and use this format for the formula
=COUNTIF(H2:H11,H4)+COUNTIF(H76:H83,H4)+COUNTIF(H4 9:H50,H4)

Hi Everyone - I am trying to count the number of times Scheduled appears in
various cells so have used formula
=COUNTIF(H2:H11,"Scheduled"+COUNTIF(H76:H83,"Sched uled"+COUNTIF(H49:H50,"Scheduled")))

But this not working and brings back 0 when it should be 4 - should I be
using a different formula?

Many Thanks
