Default "Simple" countif formula? not for me...

I want to count the number of cells in col H that are less than the
corresponding value in col G -- should be the ABS() of each, since
their will be negative numbers involved.

For some reason, this one is kicking my butt...... :)

Thanks Peo ... I knew it would be something 'simple' like that! Glad
to see an array wasn't needed ....

BTW, what does the -- in the formula mean?
