Excel spreadsheet formula to count numbers in PivotTable column
 

I have a PivotTable with many rows. The last row of the PT is, of course, the sum of each column. I want to put a row of formulas a few rows below the PT that counts the number of items in each column. The number of rows fluctuates from day to day but stays roughly in the forties. Also, there will not be a data point in every row that shows each day.

Have a look at the COUNTA() function...

Excel spreadsheet formula to count numbers in PivotTable column
 

I'm using Counta(). The issue is the range inside the parens. The range can change and I would like not to have to re-select it and drag it across dozens of columns. The range to be counted in each column starts on Row 3 but might extend to a different depth each day. I made an Offset function called "RowCount" that counts the number of words in Column A of the PivotTable and essentially identifies the number of the last row. I just don't know how to incorporate this variable into the Counta(B3:B RowCount). I know there are some ampersands and double-quotes involved.
