Hi Mike

i have tried that but still havinga problem, let me explan a bit better,

i want to be able to count the cells that are not empty in a range
(h3,f3,b3) but if the 1st cell i choose (h3) is blank then dont count the
rest of the cells

also if h3 is not empty but f3 is empty and b3 is also not empty then the
number i want is 1

iam trying to set up action plans, i have 5 stages so if a member of staff
fails to hit target each month then they go onto which number stage there are
at but if they hit there target 1 month then the action plans revert back to
stage 1.

1 = grace month
2 = action plan
3 = verbal warning
4 = written warning
5 = final warning

i have already sorted the lookup so that not a problem

hope thats abit clearer
