counting text
Hi,
Is it possible to count the amount of cells with a specific text? For instance, if I have three cells with the code 'RTT', is it possible to count that there are three cells containing 'RTT'? Thanks a lot in advance! Marieke |

Try it like this...
=COUNTIF(A1:A10,"RTT") Or, use a cell to hold the criteria: C1 = RTT =COUNTIF(A1:A10,C1) Adjust the range to suit. -- Biff Microsoft Excel MVP "mariekek5" wrote in message ...

counting text
Hi,
Like this maybe =COUNTIF(A1:A10,"rtt") -- Mike When competing hypotheses are otherwise equal, adopt the hypothesis that introduces the fewest assumptions while still sufficiently answering the question.
