Consecutive Number Counting Formula

Oct 9, 2009

In cells v43:v52 I have data which will change often the data is always either a 1,-1 or a 0, I need a way to count from the bottom up and ignore anything that is not part of the chain. It can also contain 0 in rows that are not populated yet but the 0s will always be on the bottom and never in the middle or top.

I.E. in 3 weeks it could be

1
1
1
0
0
0
0
0
0
0
0
0

I would want the formula to spit out 3 because it was 1 3 times in a row..

Now say in week 5 it is
1
1
1..............................

Formula For Counting A Number Of Items But Excluding Some Of Them?

Jan 19, 2014

1. I use this formula to count a number of items in a column per month: =SUMPRODUCT(--(MONTH(B6:B500)=8))

I also have another column C where I put some descriptors against the values in column B. I need a formula to calculate a number of items in Column B, except for those items, which are equal to XYZ in column C.

2. I also calculate a number of items, which were completed in a given month. Completion is marked with "Y" in a separate column (D). I use this formula: =SUMPRODUCT((YEAR(B6:B999)=2013)*(MONTH(B6:B999)=12)*(K6:K999<>"Y")). I can't make it count a number of completed items in January. C

Counting Words That Are Not Black In One Cell?

Aug 7, 2013

I currently have this code for counting commas in each cell in range giving me the total number of different points in the entire row. Here's the link to the original question as well.

Code:
Sub Totals()
Dim X As Long, Count As Variant
Sheets("App Communication").Select
For X = 3 To 59
Count = UBound(Split(Application.Trim(Replace(Replace(Application.Trim(Join(Application. _
Index(Cells(X, "E").Resize(, 57).Value, 1, 0), ",")), " ", "X"), ",", " ")))) + 1
Cells(X, "BJ").Value = Left(Count, CLng(Count))
Next
End Sub

Now I am looking for a way to count the number of points that have been turned blue. Some times the text in the whole cell is turned blue, others just one or two of the points is turned blue.

Formula For Counting Number Of Occurrences Within Range Of Cells AND Strings

Jan 14, 2014

I'm looking for the easiest way to count the number of occurrences within a cell range.

The formula that I'm currently using is:

=COUNTIF(D$5:D$8,"a*")

This counts the number of cells that start with 'a' and returns the sum. It seems to work fine, but when I try to make it look for more values in the range it gives me an error. For example;

When I want to find multiple values in the range and count them all, I use this formula:

=COUNTIF(D$5:D$8,OR("a*","b*","c*"))

Counting Cells With Numbers In Column That Contains Specific Words

May 9, 2014

I'm trying to build a function, but I haven't been able to successfully navigate some of the eccentricities of Excel formula-building.

Right now I am working on counting all of the cells that contain numbers (so likely just a =COUNT function), but will be eventually getting other descriptive stats as well. My problem is that I would like to create a formula that will perform the counting/mean calculation, etc., but only on a specific column that has the header cell that contains several specific words. Rather than having to type in the target words for each column, I would like to have the target words in the function be imported from multiple designated cells.

For example,

I want to find how many numbered cells are found in column E headed as "dog brown," but I also have columns headed as "cat brown" "dog black" etc. (which I will be using the formula on later) to paint a small picture, in my descriptive table, "dog" is in B31 and "brown" is in C30, then "cat" in B32 and "black" in D30.

Counting The Number Of Times A Multi Digit Number Appears

Nov 22, 2007

I've tried everything I know (which isnt that much to be honest. lol). Ive tried the frequency formula but that doesn't work the way I want it - I think its probably the wrong formula to use. I've also tried a pivot table but they always vex me. If a pivot table IS the way to go, could someone talk me through it step by step? (*the wizard is just as confusing as doing it yourself I find) ....

Counting The Number Of Occurrences Before The Current Week Number?

Jul 10, 2014

I have a spreadsheet for tracking jobs. Most everything is based off of week # rather than date. I am trying to get the stats page of the workbook to tally the total number of late jobs per week.The current week is taken care of because there is a function that automatically displays on time yes or no and I just set it to count the yeses or nos.The problem I am having is for past weeks.

I tried- =COUNTIF(Table2[On-time],"No"+(CountIF(Table2[Week # Hidden],"<Weeknum(Now())" but that doesn't work. I also tried isolating the < like this. =COUNTIF(Table2[On-time],"No"+(CountIF(Table2[Week # Hidden],"<"Weeknum(Now()) and that did not work either.

------ UPDATE

In response to using CountIFS I have also tried-

=COUNTIFS(Table2[On-time],"NO",Table2[Due Week '# Hidden],"<Weeknum(Now())") this just returns a zero value even when I have a late job listed three weeks ago.

How To Get Words To Equal A Number

Mar 10, 2014

How to recreate the formulas used in my old database. One important factor is that:


In the old database, once you type in a word, it associates it to a number, and also adds that number in a further row. how do i do this?.

EXAMPLE:
- i have the word "sitter" that = 10.25$. If i enter "sitter" in column F, it enters 10.25$ in column M.
- Likewise, i can also have the word "private" that = 13.50$. If i enter "private" in column F, it enters 13.50$ in column M.

Ranking Second Number Between Two Words

Apr 7, 2008

i have a column of numbers. every so often in the column, there is the word 'start'. the amount of numbers between each 'start' varies, but i would like to put a 1 or a 0 in the column next to each number. i would like the second highest ranking number to get a 1 and all the others to get a 0.

if the first and second numbers between two starts are equal, then i would like all numbers between the 'start' to get a 0.

for example:

start
12 0
23 0
45 0
34 1
start
23 0
34 0
45 0
56 1
68 0
45 0
34 0
45 0
start
23 0
23 0
start

I posted on here months ago and someone very kindly did an array formula for me, trouble is some of the sheets are so long now that the array takes a few minutes to work it out and load up

Return All Words Between Unit And Number Right Before $ Sign

Sep 30, 2013

I'm trying to return only the following portion of the text from a large list.

So, I want to have just the following phrase appear in a column:

Original
AAM UNIT AAM HIGH 50 DIVIDEND 13 $77,666,423 $1,132,491

To
AAM HIGH 50 DIVIDEND

Original
AAM UNIT AAM HIGH 50 DIVIDEND 13 $77,666,423 $1,132,491

To
AAM HIGH 50 DIVIDEND

Original
FIRST TRUST UNIT FT HIGH DIV EQUITY 15 $13,140,862 $301,295

To
FT HIGH DIV EQUITY

So, I essentially, want any words that appear between "Unit" and the first number that appears before the $ sign (in this case 13 and 15 respectively, but the numbers can be anything - "Unit" stays the same down the list).

How To Count The Number Of Words In A Cell With Line Breaks

Jun 6, 2014

I am making a content database and need to count the number of words in each cell...

I know you can count them with

=IF(LEN(TRIM(A2))=0,0,LEN(TRIM(A2))-LEN(SUBSTITUTE(A2,” “,””))+1)

but the the cells have line breaks so this formula won't work

I've understood that since there is a space before the new line, the formula will not recognise the space and therefore not recognise a new word.
