Using COUNTIF and NOW() together
Having problems with this one.
Column B has sequential dates entered. I would like to find out how many are today's date so I tried this: COUNTIF(b5:b100,=now()) Results in 0 as Excel changes it to this: COUNTIF(b5:b100,"=now()") and looks for text. Any ideas? -- tia Jock |

Use TODAY() instead, and frame it up like this:
