lookup/sum formula
Try the below formula for range A1:A10. Please note that this is an array
formula. Within the cell in edit mode (F2) paste this formula and press
Ctrl+Shift+Enter to apply this formula. If successful in 'Formula Bar' you
can notice the curly braces at both ends like "{=<formula}"
=SUM(A1:A10)+SUM(IF(ISTEXT(A1:A10),1,0))

I am working with a spreadsheet which has numbers and text in fields over a
large area:
for example, cells in a row would be: 435, 250, TEXT1, 400, 300, text2,
500....etc.
what I am looking to accomplish is to set a formula to say:
for each TEXT1 in a row, there should be a value of 1 added to a sum formula.
so if there are 6 TEXT1 cells in the row, the formula would result in a
value of 6.
Are there any formulas that can accomplish this in excel?
Any help is great.
