COUNTIF less than cell reference
 

Dear all,

Hopefully a simple countif function query.
I want to count the number of values that are less than a certain cell
reference. However, when I enter =COUNTIF(A1:A25,<G1) it returns an
error.

Basically I want to count all occurences in cells A1 to A25 where the
value is less than the value in G1.

Any ideas?

Here you go:

=COUNTIF(A1:A25,"<"&G1)

Does that help?

Ron
