using countif to not count cells beginning with PLAN
Hi,
I can do this in two steps using but i'm wanting to be a little more clever. In a range i have a list of filenames. I want to exclude in the count all filenames that begin with PLAN. I've tried using Countif(A2:A550,"<PLAN*") but it's not working!! Any ideas how i could do this please? Thanks John |
