Counting the number of entries in a column
Hi!
I have area numbers in column A and the number of produkts ordered in column B I want to count the number of entries in a particular area bearing in mind I just want to see the number of entries rather than sum them up like SUMIF. Is there a convenient formula which would allow me to do this? Thanks for any help |

Counting the number of entries in a column
Hi,
I assume your product is in column B and the product name is XX =countif(B1:B100,"XX") Change range and product name to fit your needs you can have as well the product you want to count entered in a cell let's say C1 in that case you can replace the above formula with =countif(B1:B100,C1) if this helps please click yes thanks "Wombat" wrote: Hi!

Counting the number of entries in a column
Right:
column A contains numbers 30 to 40 representing which area the customer is in. Column B contains the number of articles ordered by this customer. eg 5 I want to be able to count how many customers from each area has placed an order eg. how many cells have something in them in column B WHEN column A contains the correct area number I basically need a formula which would work in a similar fashion to a SUMIF but without it adding the numbers... just counting how many cells have something in them "Eduardo" wrote: Ok, so what do you want to count, could you give me an example of your data, thanks "Wombat" wrote: I dont have the product name in column B.

Counting the number of entries in a column
Make a list of your areas in column E starting in E1 and in F1 enter
=SUMPRODUCT(($A$1:$A$3=E1)*($B$1:$B$3<"")) change range to fit your needs and copy formula down, remember range has to be the same in both sides of the formula "Wombat" wrote: Right: column A contains numbers 30 to 40 representing which area the customer is in.
