Yet another issue
 
At this point Excel hates me, I can feel it. So this is what my next issue
is. I have column B which the user places an "x" in the cell that corresponds
with a day of the week in column A. I have column C that has an "x" placed
into the cell when a certain code is inputed into column D, What I am trying
to do is have a cell at the bottom, give me a percentage of the X's between
column B & C. Can anyone shed light on this for me please..

Thank you ahead of time!

Excel loves you!! It just has difficulty expressing that love.

Use COUNTIF(). COUNTIF(B1:B100,"X") and the similar for column C.

Then take the ratios, etc.

No success with that formula unless again I am doing it wrong. I basically
need to show a percentage of X's from column C vs column B

My explanation was a little sketchy. Let's say we have this data from B1
thru C20:

0 0
0 X
0 0
X 0
0 0
0 X
X 0
0 0
0 0
X 0
0 0
0 X
0 0
X 0
0 0
0 0
X 0
0 0
0 X
0 0


and in E1 the formula =COUNTIF(B1:B100,"X")
and in F1 the formula =COUNTIF(C1:C100,"X")

E1 shows 5 and F1 shows 4

The total X's are 9 and the percent from column B is 5/9 or about 55.55%
The percent from column C is 4/9 or about 44.44%.

The ratio of B to C is 5/4 or 1.25/1

Let me know if this helps.
