Counting a single value across multiple cell groups
Hi
1st apologies if this has been asked before, working on a I need connection in Hungary and don't have ages to search.... I need to count the number occurences of a value (in this case two letter e.g. "DB") in multiple cell ranges within a worksheet; I am hoping its just a case of knowing the correct separator within the function - this is the kind of function I was trying to get work: =countif(A1:C8[separator here]F1:Q10,"DB") The problem I am having is with the separator... Help! Thanks Ivan |

Counting a single value across multiple cell groups
Hey Nick
Thanks for the quick reply - on Xmas eve no less (if that means anything to you of course), will give it a try but it sounds like it should work - I didn't know you could double up the "count if's".
