Count occurences
I've written a quick and easy macro that clears (not delete) a row when it
finds a user prompted date. I now need the macro to run for every occurence that it can find. Is there a way to program Excel to count how many times a date appears? I can then use this count in a loop. Thanks. |

You can use the COUNTIF function. http://www.mrexcel.com/archive/Dates/30343.html /Fredrik |

Thanks. I'm familiar with countif, but how do I incorporate countif in a
macro? I know I could have the macro write the formula on the spreadsheet and gather the information that I need. Then I can delete the formula. But is there a cleaner way to do this without writing out a formula to the spreadsheet and then deleting it? "Fredrik Wahlgren" wrote: "AvalancheMike" wrote in message ...

Dim cnt as Long
cnt = application.Countif(Range("A1:A100"),"3/10/2004") to demo from the immediate window: ? application.Countif(Range("A1:A100"),"3/10/2004") 3 -- Regards, Tom Ogilvy "AvalancheMike" wrote in message ...

In that case, use the DATEDIF function http://www.cpearson.com/excel/datedif.htm /Fredrik |
