"True" (in quotes) means literal text. The text isn't literal. Rather "true"
in this case is a value. So, you dont' need the quotes in your formula.

=Countif(A10:A20,TRUE)

Hello Guys..

I have a range of IF formulas in A10:A20 that return either a text "True"
(not a boolean) or a blank "" .

There are several "Trues" in the range but when I use -

=Countif(A10:A20,"True")

I get a result of 0.

Why is this?

Thanks
