Summing all cells containing the letter K
Hi.
I want to count all cells in a range that contains the letter K. RON BLAIR KASPER HULK FRONT KIM The example here would return 3 because 3 cells are containing a name that has K in it. I think I should put functions like SUMPRODUCT AND ISNUMBER AND MATCH, but how do I put theese together? Thanks in advance. Mvh Jan |

Summing all cells containing the letter K
Thank you very much for helping.
But can you tell me, what does the two minus before (--ISNUMBER... do? Jan "Teethless mama" skrev i melding ... =SUMPRODUCT(--ISNUMBER(SEARCH("K",A1:F1))) "Jan T." wrote: Hi.

Summing all cells containing the letter K
The "double unary minus" converts a logical (TRUE or FALSE) value to a

Summing all cells containing the letter K
I use the following formula: =COUNTIF(D5:P5,"x")
In this case, I am counting the number of "x" between D5 and P5. You can change the "x" to "K" if you want and identify the range you want to count, up and down a column or as I have done in a row.
