How do i create a countif formula in excel?
 

I need to count all the nonconsecutive cells in a given range that contain a
specific # 1-9. I have a formula that counts all the cells in the given
range: =countif(c4:k12,"1"). I need to modify it to count only the cells
d5,d8,d11,g5,g8,g11,j5,j8,j11 that contain the #1. I know there must be a way
but i am not familure enough with creating formulas to figure it out. Please
help. I am using excel 2002. jp

=SUMPRODUCT(COUNTIF(INDIRECT({"D5","D8","D11","G5" ,"G8","G11","J5","J8","J11
"}),1))

If you have the free morefunc.xll add-in installed:

=SUMPRODUCT((ARRAY.JOIN(D5,D8,D11,G5,G8,G11,J5,J8, J11)=1)+0)

Otherwise:

=SUM(IF(MOD(ROW(D5:J11)-ROW(D5)+0,3)=0,IF(MOD(COLUMN(D5:J11)-COLUMN(D5)+0,3)=0,(D5:J11=1)+0)))

which must be confirmed with control+shift+enter, not just with enter.
