Does it work if you use the column/range where the VLOOKUP pulls from?

My guess is that you somehow are not using the correct sheet/range or that
the values are not integers but that they have decimals as well

You can also try


=COUNTIF('OPRS Conv Tracker'!Q51:Q200,"*9*")

Shouldn't really matter and this is just to test if you will get anything at
all..


Try this, select part of the range that you know has a 9, copy it to a new
sheet and paste special as values, wide the column if necessary and if you
see things like

9,000000001

then that is the reason, if so you might want to use round in the
vlookup/sum formulas

You can also try it in the new sheet, if you paste then as values into
A1:A100 or something use

=COUNTIF(A1:A100,9)

Sorry--here's the formula.
=COUNTIF('OPRS Conv Tracker'!Q51:Q200,9)
Which refers to the SUM formula mentioned which that refers to the
VLOOKUP.
Even when I've changed it so it doesn't reference a another worksheet,
it
still doesn't work.

When you say COUNTIF doesn't work, what results do you get? And your

formula is ..?

The fact the a value is derived from a formula shouldn't make any
difference? Do you always have valid values in the column(s) you are
checking?

=SUM(G51+J51+L51+N51+P51)/5 this is a result of various similar
formulas

=VLOOKUP(O51,$V$7:$W$18,2)

I have a column which I am trying to get the number of

of "9" for
example. The "9" is a formula of two functions 1) VLOOKUP in
another column
and 2) SUM of various VLOOKUP columns. I can't get COUNTIF to
work
on either
of these columns. I think it doesn't like SUM because it is a
result of
VLOOKUP columns.
