COUNTA ----- FORMULA WILL NOT COUNT NON BLANK CELLS

Sounds like the cell was preformatted as Text. Format the cell as General, edit the formula with F2press Enter -- Regards Roger Govier "mrp" wrote in message ... when entering =COUNTA(C9:C78) into a cell to count the non blank cells the formula is displayed instead of the count.
