Default How can I count items in a filtered list?

Needed to add 1 ")" to make it work

Yeah, that was my fault. <argh

Thanks for the feedback!

T. Valko, Thanks, It did not work at first;

=SUMPRODUCT(SUBTOTAL(3,OFFSET(B2:B100,ROW(B2:B100)-ROW(B2),0,1)),--(LEFT(B2:B100,2="CL"))

Needed to add 1 ")" to make it work, see below, Thanks again

=SUMPRODUCT(SUBTOTAL(3,OFFSET(B2:B100,ROW(B2:B100)-ROW(B2),0,1)),--(LEFT(B2:B100,2)="CL"))

You can't use wildcards in this function.

Try this:

=SUMPRODUCT(SUBTOTAL(3,OFFSET(B2:B100,ROW(B2:B100)-ROW(B2),0,1)),--(LEFT(B2:B100,2="CL"))

This function almost works for except I want to use a wildcard for "A",
I
want to use "CL*" cells that begin with "CL". How can I use the *
wildcard
in
this function.

This will "COUNTIF" B2:B100 = "A" in a filtered list:

=SUMPRODUCT(SUBTOTAL(3,OFFSET(B2:B100,ROW(B2:B100)-ROW(B2),0,1)),--(B2:B100="A"))

do anybody know, how to use "countif" with filtered lists?

the function subtotal does not allow conditions (e.g. "name")
the function countif does it, but it count hidden cells, too

thank you for your ideas

I have an excel spread sheet table that I filter. I would like to
be
able
to
count the number of cells in the filtered data. Anyone know how
to
do
this?
CountA returns the number of cells in the unfiltered data.
