how to sum or count values with "<" symbol in excel?
I need to report values as "<x" such as <0.1 , but want to assign a value of
zero when performing mathematical equations, and want to be able to count them separately from values that don't have "<". I'm looking for syntext in the formulas that will help me do this. Please help. Thanks! |

While the string may look like an emoticon, you would actually use this to count them:
=COUNTIF(B:B,"*<*") Or to create an extra column for doing the math: =IF(ISNUMBER(FIND("<",B2)),0,B2) copied down to match your values, then use that for averaging, etc. HTH, Bernie MS Excel MVP "molamoladiver" wrote in message ...
