I'm sure there is a way to do this however I"m fairly new to Excel and
need
some help.
I have a master list of data on a worksheet and I want to summarize this
data on other "master" sheets. Most of the data is in text format.
I want to specify a formula that looks at the named range on a different
worksheet and counts all records that match "dealer" for instance.
The Count function only seems to work with fields that have a numeric
value.
Can someone point me in the right direction?
THanks
Pam
