Hi
I want to count the number of cells containing a particular uppercase
character.
I tried using =COUNTIF(J2:AN2,"H") but this counts lowercase as well.
Is there any way to count upper case or lower case only?
I am using Excel 2007
Thanks
Brian
Try:
=SUMPRODUCT(--ISNUMBER(FIND("H",J2:AN2)))
--ron
Thanks ron that woks fine.
Just so I understand, the character is being compared as a number and as
upper case and lower case have diffeten values only the specified version is
counted?
Thanks
Brian
