"Count non blanks" if cells don't equal certain values
 

I need to figure out a formula that counts the non blanks in a row, but omits
non blanks equalling "UA", "UE" and "AA".
Can anyone give me a simple formula please, I've tried all sorts of IFs,
AND's and MAYBE's thanks!

"Count non blanks" if cells don't equal certain values
 

If you want to exclude only the three values you mentioned then try
=COUNTA(B1:B9)-COUNTIF(B1:B9,"EE")-COUNTIF(B1:B9,"UA")-COUNTIF(B1:B9,"UE")

You can comeup with more elegant formulas but all of them will essentially
do the same process...

Adjust the range according to your data.

=256-COUNTBLANK(1:1)-COUNTIF(1:1,"AA")-COUNTIF(1:1, "UE")-COUNTIF(1:1,"UA")

"Count non blanks" if cells don't equal certain values
 

If I have 8 values I need to omit, this might be quite longwinded - is there
any way of condensing it so that you only need to put the range in twice?

Thanks

Replace the characters within the quotes with your values and adjust for
your ranges:

=COUNTA(A1:Z1)-SUM(COUNTIF(A1:Z1,{"AA","BB","CC","DD","EE","FF"," GG","HH"}))

Don't understand your comment ... I don't see anything wrong with your
posting!

Anyway, you're welcome and thank you for the feed-back.
