1. I have a formula I want to change and am not sure how.
=IF(COUNT(L17:L33)=0,"",COUNTIF(L17:L33,"<0"))
I want to now count all numbers from negative 4 and more. In case I'm not
explaining this properly, if the column as these negative numbers (5), (3),
(7), (8), (1), if would count only 3.

2. I have another formula that needs changing:
=IF(COUNT(L17:L33)="","",COUNTIF(L17:L33,"-"))
First of all, please note, the "-" is not text. It's the result of breaking
even in an accounting formatted column. Okay, what I need changed is that it
would count all numbers from negative 4 to the breaking even point. Again,
in case I'm not explaining myself properly, if a column has these numbers:
(4), (1), 8, 1, -, (2), it will count 4 from this colum.

Thank you

Connie,

1:

=IF(COUNT(L17:L33)=0,"",COUNTIF(L17:L33,"-4"))

or possibly

=IF(COUNT(L17:L33)=0,"",COUNTIF(L17:L33,"<-4"))

depending if by "greater than" you mean on absolute or actual values.

2

=IF(COUNT(L17:L33)=0,"",COUNTIF(L17:L33,"-4")+COUNTIF(L17:L33,"-"))

2. Try
=COUNTIF(L17:L33,"=-4")-COUNTIF(L17:L33,"0")

I get the right answer from the first formula you all gave, Bob, Bernie &
Frank. But the other formulas are not working. I will give you the exact
numbers in the column I'm working with now, where the formula should yield 11:
-
-
-
-
-
(1)
(1)
(1)
3
2
-
-
5
5
5
6

There are eight "-" and three numbers in the range of (4) to breaking even
(the "-").

Hi
the '-' is just formated for the value zero?. If yes the following
formulas should work
=COUNTIF(A1:A20,"=-4")-COUNTIF(A1:A20,"0")

or
=SUMPRODUCT(--(A1:A20=-4),--(A1:A20<=0))

That still gives the answer 3. The "-" is what the accounting formatted cell
yields as the difference between two identical dates. All numbers in the
column are the difference between dates in two other columns.
