Data in Cells
Hello Everyone,
Hopefully the solution to this is quite straightforward. I have an excel worksheet that has about 11000 cells. Some cells have data in them and some do not. I need if possible, to calculate the total % of how many cells have data in them. Columns which are currently blank have been removed. Could anyone please help me out on this. Thank you srmp. |

Data in Cells
Try this.
I will use 0,1 in another column to represent with or without data. You will write a simple formula like, =IF(A1=" ",0,1) If A1 = space, set the cell to 0, else set the cell to 1. Then you can calculate the total and percentage you need. Regards, SKY " wrote: Hello Everyone, Hopefully the solution to this is quite straightforward.

Could you please explain to me how to go about it again. I need to know over all the columns the total number of cell which have data. thanks for ya help! srmp SKY wrote: Try this.

To get the total number of cells containing data in columns a thru d:
=COUNTA(A:D) Be aware that if any of your cells have formulae that evaluate to null, they will be counted even though they appear to be blank. -- Carlos "Shreekant Patel" wrote in message oups.com...

Data in Cells
=(counta(a1:a10)/(countblank(a1:a10)+counta(a1:a10)))
now format the cell to percentage. The range that i have given is just an example...u can change it accordingly. Let me know if it works. GARY wrote in message ups.com...

Hi Gary,
That worked superbly! Thank you for that funtion. Have one question, if i wanted to apply this function across my whole worksheet, i simply just have to modify the column ranges in the formulae right? srmp Gary wrote: =(counta(a1:a10)/(countblank(a1:a10)+counta(a1:a10))) now format the cell to percentage.
