Count Text Data
Using 2007 on Vista
If I've got text data which in some columns either has data or there is a blank, what formula do I use to count how many cells have text in them per column? Many thanks |

Count Text Data
=COUNTA(A2:A200)
will count everything except blanks post back if you have numbers as well that should not be counted -- Regards, Peo Sjoblom wrote in message ...

Count Text Data
Thanks
I did just that In my case it's " =COUNTA(A2:A1293)" I then dragged this formula along the bottom of each column Despite some columns have less data than in col a, all columns show the same result 1292 How can this be?
