Summing words
I have 5 choices that are words for each cell in a column. How do I sum the
total number of each word or assign a hidden number to each word? I'm trying to avoid using numbers because it puts the respondent off? I'd like to use colors. Any chance? Thanks Much, P. |

Try something like:
=COUNTIF(A:A,"Word1") "Patrick" wrote in message ... I have 5 choices that are words for each cell in a column. How do I sum the total number of each word or assign a hidden number to each word?

Hi Patrick,
Do you mean you want to count the number of times say "RED" is returned by the user? if so then you still don't need to assign a number. Use =COUNTIF(range,"RED") where range is the range of cells that you want to examine. -- John "Patrick" wrote: I have 5 choices that are words for each cell in a column.
