COUNT BLANK AND ZERO AS THE SAME THING
 

I'm writing an IF function and want my formula to return a 1 if the cell has
a number in it, but return a 0 if the cell is blank of has a zero in it.

ie Cell A1 would return 1 if A2 has 3 in it, but return 0 if A2 is blank or
has 0 in it.

=COUNT(A:A)-COUNTIF(A:A,0)

One way...

=--AND(COUNT(A1),A1<0)

You can use this IF formula...

=IF(AND(ISNUMBER(A1),A1<0),1,0)

or you can use this shorter non-IF formula instead...

=--AND(ISNUMBER(A1),A1<0)

=if(a2=0,0,1)

or

=--(A2<0)

or

=(A2<0)*1

Hi jj

Try something as

=COUNT(C26:C28)-COUNTIF(C26:C28,0)

With kind regards,

JP
