Counting formula question
I am attempting to count the number of times a phrase occurs in a column, but
this column has reasons in a phrase dropdown list form (generated from a hidden column on the same worksheet). Is there something I'm missing in this formula? (the {=SUM(IF((E2:E20="Not chosen from list")*1,0))} A B C D E sent back corrected Ref # Reason: (hidden with list 1 123 Blank fields or dashes of text choices in 1 124 Not chosen from list dropdown in D) 1 125 Not chosen from list Totals: Not chosen from list ____ Blank fields or dashes ____ (etc.) Thanks for any help |

Counting formula question
=SUM(IF(E2:E20="Not chosen from list",1))
ctrl+shift+enter, not just enter or =SUMPRODUCT(--(E2:E20="Not chosen from list")) Just normal ENTER "frieam05" wrote: I am attempting to count the number of times a phrase occurs in a column, but this column has reasons in a phrase dropdown list form (generated from a hidden column on the same worksheet).
