Default How do I count the # of times an entry has been made in a month?

J10:N40 may contain data pertaing to 5 activities on each of the days of the
month. I need some help to detemine the total number of day's registered
activities have taken place. Tks

Assuming that a day's registered activity is marked with a not empty cell,
in cell O10 enter

=SUMPRODUCT(--NOT(ISBLANK(J10:N10)))

and fill down to O40!

Bit over-engineered Stefi, =COUNTA(J10:N10) does the same but much simpler.

Tks for the input... both give me close to what I need but I am not there
yet. There is a chance that there could be 1, or up to all 5 activities in a
day, but it should only register as 1 day active. If there are no entries,
there was no activity for that day. If there where 3 activities, that would
then show me that I had a day (1) with activity. Hope that helps!

Wayne,

What you do is sum the results, like

=SUMIF(A10:A40,"0")

Wayne,

Sorry, I gave you the wrong formula. Assuming that you have the initial
counts in A10:A40, the result that you want is returned by

=COUNTIF(A10:A40,"0")

Default How do I count the # of times an entry has been made in a mont

Bob... I am not getting my thoughts across to you. I have five classes that I
cover each day, and there is a chance that on some days I do not have one of
or any of those five classes. I want to see/total the number of days that I
had classes in that month, not the number of classes. I already have the
total of the individual classes for each month. The five classes are in cells
J10:N10 for the month, therefore J10:N40.
I could have 3 out of the 5 classes on a particular day. I want to be able
to count that as 1 day with classes, in the month.
In my previous post, the total number of days with classes would have been
six (6)!
Again... Tks

Sorry to interject, but I generally read these threads for my own
education.

Could you add a formula to column O, where O10 would =COUNTA(J10:N10),
then fill down to O40. Then in P10 enter =COUNTIF(O2:O32,"0").

I think this accomplishes what you want, but not in one formula
therefore I may be over simplifying and should have stayed out of this
conversation.

I used George's formulas and mine, both gave a result of 4. His in O41,
mine in P10.

George's:
O10 =IF(SUM(J10:N10)0,1,0) filled down to O40
O41 =SUM(Q10:Q40)

Mine:
O10 =COUNTA(J10:N10) filled down to O40
P10 =COUNTIF(O10:O40,"0")

Wayne

Are the cells that you say are 'Blank', truly blank?
Or have they some other data in them?

The formulas that you have been given, require that if you have not
worked, that the cells are indeed blank!

Or do you enter some data into the 'unworked' cells?
If so, what?
