Q1:
Some examples of formulas (not functions - they are something else) you
could use
(a) =COUNTIF(C1:C100,"=200") - COUNTIF(C1:C100, "<=1000)
(b) =SUMPRODUCT(--(C1:C100=200),--(C1:C100<=1000))
(c) =COUNTIFS(C1:C100,"=200",C1:C100,"<=1000") ' only in Excel 2007

COUNTIF is explained in Help
SUMPRODUCT is explained in these:

2) =B5/$I$4
You can type the $ sings to make the refercne 'absolute' of with the cursor
on eiter the I or the 4 press F4

I have two different questions.

First, I need to know what function to enter to determine how many
quantities of a particular item exist on a spreadsheet. For example, if I
wanted to know how many number existed in C1-C100 that were within the
range
of $$200-$1000, how would I enter that function. Logically, it might be

=QTY((C1:C100)=200, <=1000) But, I need to know what it actually should
be!

Also, I need to know how to keep one cell a constant in a function that i
am
repeating. For example, the function that I want in C5 is "=B5/I4".
Well,
in C6 i want B6/I4, and in C7 i need it to be B7/I4. So, I4 will be in
every
equation, but B will change as I go down the spreadsheet. How can I get
this
to automatically repeat over 200 cells or so?

Thanks so much, I greatly appreciate it!
