point assignment
I have 200 rows of students and 5 columns of assignments with letter
answers in each one. I want to give one point if the student answered in at least one assignment and zero if they did not...any formula which could do this? |

point assignment
So, if the student did not answer in an assignment, then would the cell be
blank? If so, then the COUNTA function might work for you: =COUNTA(B2:F2) This would count the number of non-blank cells in the range B2 through F2. =IF(COUNTA(B2:F2)0,1,0) This returns a 1 if any cell in the range contains a value, and a 0 if no values are present.

You *did* say "letter answers", so ...
Assume name in Column A, B to F for assignments. In Column G, try this: =--(COUNTIF(B1:F1,"*?")0) -- HTH, RD --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Please keep all correspondence within the NewsGroup, so all may benefit ! --------------------------------------------------------------------------- "Blah" wrote in message oups.com...
