hi all,
require some assistance for formating a cell group ie F9:F28 that
will count a symbol i.e.( a tick or cross) instead of a numeral and total it
at the bottom.at F29.

thanks in advance

Are you use a special font (like Marlett) and a letter (a) for the tick? If
so, just use COUNTIF

=COUNTIF(F9:F28,"a")
