Default Adding text in a single column


I have a row, L3 to L200 that has this selection, Scheduled or
Unscheduled. I want the total "Scheduled" to display in cell F1 and
"Unscheduled" in G1 like this if possible. This will auto update the
count as the selection is chosen from the drop down menu in column L3.

F1 - Scheduled - 31
F2 - Unscheduled - 67

I know how to sum numbers but not text and numbers. I know this isn't
that difficult, I just can't figure it out. Any assistance would
greatly be appreciated.

Thank you in advance!

Try these:

="Scheduled - "&COUNTIF(L3:L200,"scheduled")

="Unscheduled - "&COUNTIF(L3:L200,"unscheduled")

Hi,

I suspect you can work out how to do unscheduled:-

="Scheduled "&COUNTIF(L3:L200,"Scheduled")

Just for info to help you with your Excel problems.

"I have a row, L3 to L200 that has this selection"

L3 to L200 is a "Column" not a "row"
