COUNTIF oddity
Hi All
Im sure this must be very simple but.. I have got a column of integer numbers (formatted general), say A1:A20 I just want to count the number of cells with values greater than a certain figure (integer stored in a different cell, say B1) But =COUNTIF(A1:A20,"B1") incorrectly returns a value of zero. =COUNTIF(A1:A20,6) works OK .....as does =COUNTIF(A1:A20,B1), but I want B1. Even Excel (Insert|Function|Countif) puts the syntax as =COUNTIF(A1:A20,"B1"). Help appreciated Phil Excel 2003. |
