Not sure if count is the correct formula... Excel 2002
 
I have a formula that I use for every job I complete that is inserted into
the "Time" column, and above this I have "Jobs" basically count the number of
Jobs I have completed for the week =COUNTA(F6:F47), however since I have
added the new formula to the "Time" cells it is counting all of them, how do
I resolve this issue

What is in column F? Are they formulas in which some return blank? When
using COUNTA, even if a cell appears blank but has a formula in it, it will
get counted. If that is the case, then you might consider using SUMPRODUCT.

=SUMPRODUCT(--(F6:F47<""))

If this is not what you're doing, post an example of your data and
formulas.

Paul thank you for your quick response, its not exactly what I am doing, so I
have "Jobs" counting a different column to give me the same results

Thank you Paul. Your sting seems to work OK, however when I use it on my
SmartPhone it does work (Error), however my old string does work, maybe its
just to long
