how to do % of cells with data
My sheet looks like this: _ABCDEF____ 1x_x_______ 2x_x_______ 3x_x_______ 4x_x_______ 5x_________ 6x_________ 7x_________ 8x_________ I want to know the % of cells in column C that have data in them, and display this % in E1. Column A tells us we have 8 rows, so E1 then would display 50%. -- matthewst ------------------------------------------------------------------------ matthewst's Profile: http://www.excelforum.com/member.php...o&userid=20340 View this thread: http://www.excelforum.com/showthread...hreadid=483610 |

how to do % of cells with data
Hi Matthew
Try =COUNTIF(C1:C8,"=x")/COUNTIF(A1:A8,"=x") Format the cell as Percentage.

how to do % of cells with data
Thanks for the quick reply! That works to my example, but not for the actual sheet. I get this error "#DIV/0!". The actual the cells contain names wich that formula doesn't seem to like. Column A contains names and column C contains ranks. I need to know the % of people with a rank. The number of people in column A will change from time to time. This is a little more difficult than I thought! In a nutshell: I need E1 to display the % of cells in column C that contain data as compared to column A. -- matthewst ------------------------------------------------------------------------ matthewst's Profile: http://www.excelforum.com/member.php...o&userid=20340 View this thread: http://www.excelforum.com/showthread...hreadid=483610 |

how to do % of cells with data

Tommorow there will be 20 and 15 of them will have ranks, and so on. -- matthewst ------------------------------------------------------------------------ matthewst's Profile: http://www.excelforum.com/member.php...o&userid=20340 View this thread: http://www.excelforum.com/showthread...hreadid=483610 |

Hi Matthew
Just extend your range. You can make it whole columns if you wish =COUNTA(C:C)/COUNTA(A:A) Regards Roger Govier matthewst wrote: Dude that is awesome!!! Thanks!! I got one more for ya.
