need help summing text in column
Hi,
To count names (or any text) in a column A, you can use: =COUNTIF(A:A,"?*") The list can contain spaces or zero-length text cells. They will not be counted. So, your final formula to show spare seats would be something like: Number of Seats - COUNTIF(A:A,"*?") Regards - Dave. |
