Please help!! Countif formula doesnn't work with text format
Data is as follows: A1 099 A2 99 A3 099 A4 99 The cells are all formatted as TEXT In A5 is a formula =COUNTIF(A1:A4, A1) The result incorrectly calculates to 4 not 2 which is what I would rather see. Has anybody experienced this anomoly and how do I force COUNTIF to evaluate the "literal text cell values" rather than a "numeric conversion of the cell values" which appears to be happening? -- shirley_kee ------------------------------------------------------------------------ shirley_kee's Profile: http://www.excelforum.com/member.php...o&userid=30384 View this thread: http://www.excelforum.com/showthread...hreadid=565899 |
