Using the numeric contents of a cell to define row number
Can anyone tell me whether I can put a number in a cell and then use that
cell to define a range e.g. A B 1 3 CABG 2 PCI 3 CABG 4 PCI =countif(B1:B(A1), "PCI") The answer should equal 1 Thanks John |

Using the numeric contents of a cell to define row number
Try it like this:
=countif(indirect("B1:B"&A1), "PCI") Hope this helps. Pete On Dec 5, 8:38 pm, JRD wrote: Can anyone tell me whether I can put a number in a cell and then use that cell to define a range e.g. A B 1 3 CABG 2 PCI 3 CABG 4 PCI =countif(B1:B(A1), "PCI") The answer should equal 1 Thanks John |
