I need a formula
 

Can I make a cell count the total number of "X" placed in a group of cells?
example: If A1, B1, C1, and D1 each have an "X", I want E1 to say "4". If A1,
B1, and D1 each have an "X", I want E1 to say "3", and so on. Is there a
formula for this?

You can try
=COUNTIF(A1:A4,"X")

I need a formula
 

=COUNTIF(A1:d1,"x")

note it is not case sensitive so will count X or x
