Count number of positive values in range
 
Hi everyone,

I've got a flexi time worksheet that I've put together with lots of help
from you guys over time and now I'm back asking for more help :-)

I would like to be able to count the number of days where the flexi balance
has been either positive or negative. Cells are formatted [h]:mm and add
together balance from previous day to number of hours worked that day.
Version is 2003.

Many thanks once again

It sounds as if the questioner wanted COUNTIF, not SUMIF ?

Hi David and Gary,

It was more how to identify negative and positive values in the formula.

I hope it's not something really simple and staring me in the face but think
it may be :-)

Count number of positive values in range
 
You can do:

=COUNTIF(range,"0")

for positive values, (or you might like to make it "=0"), and:

=COUNTIF(range,"<0")

for negative values.

Hope this helps.
