How do I keep count in an Excel spreadsheet?
I have created spreadsheet to keep a detailed track of days travelled. It is
basically functional (and very pretty) but I need more from it. Some cell's (representing days) throughout a given month have either a 1 or 1/2. I am looking for a formula that can keep a count every time I put a 1 or 1/2 in these cells - ..but for an entire month...without the =sum formula because it takes too long. And then I would like a simple formula for the year to date tracking. I know there is a count in Excel but cannot figure out how to use it. This may be simple but I just can't get it...please help! Thanks |

How do I keep count in an Excel spreadsheet?
To count numbers use the formula @count(RANGE); If you have text or labels
try @counta(RANGE); If you want to count a specific item like the text Scott then use @countif(RANGE,"Scott") or @count(RANGE, criteria) "Shay-rot" wrote: I have created spreadsheet to keep a detailed track of days travelled.
