=COUNTIF(E913:E914,"COR") is the formula I'm using to count the number of
times COR appears in column E. Am I using this formula incorrectly? What is the correct formula to count a non number in a column if this is wrong?? Thanks -- Bonni |

Hi Bonni
You say "appears in column E", but you have restricted it to rows 913:914 within column E. Is this what you wanted to do? There is nothing wrong with your formula, but if you are getting a result of 0, it may be that your data has a space after the COR. Try =COUNTIF(E913:E914,"COR ") or =COUNTIF(E913:E914,"COR*") but be aware that the latter could find COR as part of CORRESPONDENCE etc. There are other techniques as well, so post back if any of these suggestions do not resolve your problem. -- Regards Roger Govier "Bonni Wilbourne" wrote in message ... =COUNTIF(E913:E914,"COR") is the formula I'm using to count the number of times COR appears in column E.
