Count Strings/Text Within Date Range

May 2, 2008

I am very comfortable with VBA but I usually avoid using formulas if at all possible (unfortunately, I have, formulas are unavoidable (by request).. so formulas it is)

I will try to explain

Column A is a list of dates (ever expanding)
Column B is a list of names ( multiple entries of various names but aligned with various dates)
Column H is a list of names (each possible name which can appear in column B, no duplicates)

Cell I1 = A Date
Cell J1 = A Date
(forming a date range)

Basically what I need to do is:

= COUNTIF(B:B,H2) - but only count it if it is withing the date range (>=I1 & <=J1)

I have tried wrapping it in an IF statement but I can't seem to get it to work.

Count Instances Of Part Cell Text In Range

Jan 21, 2008

I need a formula which I am using to count instance of sickness. I include a sample copy of my data which I hope will make my request clearer! I'm currently using the below formula to count the number of continuous instances of any code starting with "SICK" =(SUMPRODUCT((LEFT(C$10:C$37,4)="SICK")*(LEFT(C$10:C$37,4)<>(LEFT(C$10:C$37,4)))))

I would also like this formula to count any code starting with LTS as well (Long Term Sick). Due to the nature of sickness there may be continuous periods where both SICK and LTS codes are used, at the moment I can not come up with a formula to return the value I need. These columns may contain other codes but for simplicities sake I have only shown the relavent ones.

Count Unique Text Entries Given A Certain Condition In A Separate Range?

Aug 11, 2014

I need to count the number of unique text values in the first column given a condition in the 2nd column. For example, the formula that I'm looking for should give a result of "3" because it is an SME, and there are 3 unique companies that are classified as SMEs.

Company Name
Company Type

Company A
SME

Company B
SME

(I cant seem to make the tables visible but Company A and Company D right below the header should be in one cell) This should still yield a value of "3" despite having Company A and D in the same cell.

Count Highest Number Of Duplicate Text Entries In Range

Nov 2, 2011

I have a column that is filled with different names. Some names appear more than once. There is one name in fact that appears four times.

I am looking for a formula, or VBA if that's necessary, that will look through the range Y2:Y50, and return a value of 4, because the person that has the most duplicates, her name appears 4 times.

If everyone's name appeared only once, except for a person whose name was in that range twice, then the formula would return a 2.

Count Number Of Times Text String Appears In A Range

Feb 6, 2012

I want to count the number of times a word appears in a range (like M9:S663), but sorting it by the month it appears (eg: january = 2, february = 56, march = 2000, etc.)

I managed to do this but there has to be a better way

=COUNTIFS(RNM.1;"PRUM Transcripcion";FechaComite;">=01/01/2012";FechaComite;"=01/01/2012";
FechaComite;"=01/01/2012";FechaComite;"=01/01/2012";FechaComite;"=01/01/2012";
FechaComite;"=01/01/2012";FechaComite;"=01/01/2012";FechaComite;"

Count Amount Of Cells Within Range That Contain Multiple Strings Of Text

Apr 22, 2013

I'm trying to build a formula that counts the amount of cells within a range that contain multiple strings of text within the same cell. I only know how to build a formula that snags cells that contain 1 but not 2 different ones within the same cell. For example: I want to count cells if they have the word BALL and STICK somewhere in the cell....see three cell examples below

gameballnetstick
ballgame
stick ball
tenballs
green stick

Of the three examples: it would only count cells: gameballnetstick and stickball

Count Number Of Keywords (range) Found In Text String

Aug 23, 2013

I am trying to count the number of specific words contained in a specific cell. If my data were static, and the list of keywords was short, there are many solutions such as using multiple instances of the length function as proposed by @shg here.

Suppose I have the following sheet: (column C is what I am trying to achieve)

A
B
C
1

[Code]....

That is, C2 will tell that B2 contained 3 of the keywords (1X beautiful, 2X happy) and so on.

Count Multiple Text Items Inside A Given Date Range

Sep 15, 2008

I have data in 2 columns.

COLUMN A COLUMN B
2008-01-01 00:00:00 CRIMINAL EVENT
2008-01-04 00:34:48 OTHER
2008-02-04 00:23:59 SUSPICIOUS INCIDENT
2008-01-31 23:59:59 ENEMY ACTION
2008-01-08 00:45:43 FRIENDLY ACTION
2008-01-09-00:45:33 RAID


I need a formula or macro that will count all the times "Criminal Event", "Other", "Suspicious Incident", and "Enemy Action" occured in January. Also if possible I need to not specify column ranges, such as A2:A7, but instead it needs to find the last cell containing data in Columns A and B, and use that as the end point. For example it would search A2:Last Cell Containing Data

Count Text & Non Text Entries

Mar 30, 2007

Is it possible to count Text & Non Text Entries in the following way?

The value in cell A1 = 18A
The value in cell B1 = 18B
The value in cell C1 = 19

A Cell with a value that includes and A or a B constitutues a half of a unit so -

The sum of A1 on its own would be .50

The sum of B1 on its own would be .50

The sum of C1 on its own would be 1.0

The sum of B1:C1 would be 1.5

Count If Value In Range 1 Greater Than Value In Range 2

Nov 24, 2009

I have two ranges that show parts of a question to be answered and those parts already answered (aa6:aa55 and ab6:ab55). I would like to count those elements where the value in column AA is greater than the corresponding value in column AB, showing questions with parts still to be answered. Currently I have a formula comparing the two and am counting the occurrences of true or false. This seems to be overkill and I am sure that there is an array formula that can do the same thing more efficiently, unfortunately I cannot figure it out.

Excel 2003 :: How To Count Cells With Instances Text Not Instances Of Text

Aug 17, 2012

I'm using WinXP with Excel 2003 - I have a column of highway sign description data (16k+ rows).

Example:

Curve Arrow Right
Curve Arrow Left
Turn Arrow
Reversing Curve Arrow Right
Winding Road Arrow(plus many more unique entries)

I'm using SUM and COUNTIF to total the number of times "Curve", "Reversing", "Turn" and "Winding" appear in the column.

My formula is:
Code: =SUM(COUNTIF($F11:$F16196,{"*CURVE*","*REVERSING*","*TURN*","*WINDING*"}))

Which works great EXCEPT what I really want is the number of cells with any of those key words, not the total count of those words. The example above should be 5, but since row four contains more that 1 of the key words I'm getting 6.

Assign Text Value, Then Count

Nov 10, 2008

First challenge will be assigning point values to Words so I can them up and create averages etc

So I have 4 words I need to learn to assign point vales to, then create a formula that will count the points in a row. That will get me off and running,

So here is a very vague idea of what I mean, this would go in A5 as a example

if A1:D1= complete+2 incomplete+0 submitted+1 missing-1

so if I had a row that was:

Submitted | Submitted |Complete| Complete | Missing | 5

( 5 would be the value the formula would return 1+1+2+2-1)

Count If Cell Contains Text?

Dec 17, 2013

Count if cell contains text string

I have a list of animals and a list of countries they are found in so I wanted to count how many animals are found in each country.

So the count function =COUNTIF(E3:E202,"*" & "India" & "*") works perfectly to count how many have India listed as one of the countries.

But was wondering if there is a way to replace the criteria bit (ie the country name) with information from a cell.

So basically I have copied in a list of countries so I just want to use that as the criteria without having to manually input them all individually.

Count Textboxes That Contain Text

Aug 15, 2008

Say I have a userform that has a bunch textboxes on it. If I wanted to take 20 of those textboxes, and scan through and count which ones have values, is there a simple way to do that?

I need to make it so that if more than 11 of those 20 textboxes contain text, a msgbox will popup and tell my users they are exceeding their limit.

I was thinking one way may be make them all a list, and then somehow count through the list and once the count reaches a specified number it msgbox them...but I'm not sure exactly what the process is for that.

Formula To Compare Sum Of Range To Cell Value And Return Cell Count Of Range Used

Jun 3, 2014

I am trying to find out how many weeks our current inventory will support our sales. I am trying to research formulas that will do this, and coming back with things like OFFSET, MATCH, INDEX but am not certain the best way to put them together to get what I need. I use excel daily, but this is a bit mroe advanced than I am used to

Mini.xlsx

Starting in cell B4, I would like to count how many weeks of Demand can be covered by the specific Available On Hands in row 3 for that week, put the number of "Weeks Covered" into cell B2, and then fill over to the right in row 2. Right now, the values in row 2 are from my own manual calculations, but I would like a dynamic formula that will sum up the values in row 4 up to (but not greater than) the value in B3, give the count of cells that reached that sum (or even better with decimals to show the percentage covered), which I will copy over into B3:B13. Not sure if that makes sense, or if I can explain in a better way. The yellow cells are what I am trying to create a formula for and am currently stuck.
