Is there a way that I can use OR and NOT statements in Countif statements?

I am working on an inventory sheet where it will count how many stations do
not working.

To determine that the station is good I have some different text, and if the
station is not working I have other text the person can type.

What I would like to do is to have Countif(a5:a7<"Good
Monitor",b5:b7<"Good Keyboard,B5:b7<"So So Keyboard")

Look at SUMPRODUCT:

=SUMPRODUCT(--(a5:a7<"Good
Monitor"),--(b5:b7<"Good Keyboard,"),--(B5:b7<"So So Keyboard"))

The -- coercises the TRUE/FALSE conditions to 1/0.

Will that produce a result that if I put that in a spreadsheet and if there
are 5 rows that do not have any of the stuff I am putting into the formula it
will return a value of 5?

If all entries are blank for "n" rows you will get "n" as an answer.

Why not try it?

I am currently trying it and it looks like it will only return the number of
times that the conditions are matched in the first column of calculations.

There was a typo im my formula .. an extraneous "," in the second parameter
{"Good Keyboard,"} but if I have the following in A2:B7

A3="Good Monitor"
B4="Good Keyboard"
B6="So so keyboard"

I get a result of 3 i.e. Rows 2,5 and 7 are blank

Is this correct?

if the formula you gave me was:

SUMPRODUCT(--(a5:a7<"Good Monitor"),--(b5:b7<"Good

Where would I get rid of the extra ","

For the Monitor I have more conditions that i do not want the line to be and
I was just duplicating what you had and it was working until I got to a
different column.

Just delete it (the comma) from the formula!

If, in any row, column F or G is blank you will get a result of zero for that
row.

I presume your requirement is if any of F or G or H or I are not equal to
the specified conditions for each column AND ALL are not blank, then the
count is 1 for that row.

i THINK (no sure) this might do what you want - add in conditions for H & I
but exclude test for blank as this done by end part of the formula.

=SUMPRODUCT(--($F$6:$F$232<"Pixels Damaged"),--($F$6:$F$232<"Low

Sorry but my mind has gone blank on this ! I'll give it further thought later.

I am using the formula the count the number of stations that do not work. And
the things that I am checking for in this formula to see if it is not, all
fall under things that identify the station as working. I would like this
formula to check all the rows and columns for the equipment and if 1 row (is
1 station) has 1 or more pieces that would result in true it would just
result in 1 for that full row.

Thanks for the help.

Just delete it (the comma) from the formula!

=SUMPRODUCT(--(a5:a7<"Good Monitor"),--(b5:b7<"Good
Keyboard"),--(B5:b7<"So So Keyboard"))

What happens with the different column? what is your "new" formula?

if the formula you gave me was:

SUMPRODUCT(--(a5:a7<"Good Monitor"),--(b5:b7<"Good
Keyboard,"),--(B5:b7<"So So Keyboard"))

Where would I get rid of the extra ","

For the Monitor I have more conditions that i do not want the line to be and
I was just duplicating what you had and it was working until I got to a
different column.

There was a typo im my formula .. an extraneous "," in the second parameter
{"Good Keyboard,"} but if I have the following in A2:B7

A3="Good Monitor"
B4="Good Keyboard"
B6="So so keyboard"

I get a result of 3 i.e. Rows 2,5 and 7 are blank

Is this correct?

I am currently trying it and it looks like it will only return the number of
times that the conditions are matched in the first column of calculations.

If all entries are blank for "n" rows you will get "n" as an answer.

Why not try it?

Will that produce a result that if I put that in a spreadsheet and if there
are 5 rows that do not have any of the stuff I am putting into the formula it
will return a value of 5?

Look at SUMPRODUCT:

=SUMPRODUCT(--(a5:a7<"Good
Monitor"),--(b5:b7<"Good Keyboard"),--(B5:b7<"So So Keyboard"))

The -- coercises the TRUE/FALSE conditions to 1/0.

Is there a way that I can use OR and NOT statements in Countif statements?

I am working on an inventory sheet where it will count how many stations do
not working.

To determine that the station is good I have some different text, and if the
station is not working I have other text the person can type.

What I would like to do is to have Countif(a5:a7<"Good
Monitor",b5:b7<"Good Keyboard,B5:b7<"So So Keyboard")
