Count Blank Cells In A Column With A Twist
Jan 24, 2014
I have a spreadsheet that has 36 columns and 6000+ rows. Each column has a mix of blanks and content, which is an X. See example of the pattern below, column A. I want to run the COUNTBLANK function through the entire column A so that it assigns a value in column B, next to the content it relates to. Line B4, B9, and B11 would have results, in the example below. I want to be able to apply a formula the entire worksheet, all 36 content columns, and over 6000 rows, so that I can obtain the results quickly by filling down, across, etc. I suspect a loop might be in order. Currently, I have to run the COUNTBLANK between one X and another, repeating that tediously over and over again.
---A----------------------------B
1 X
2 blank
3 blank

I was curious if it is possible to give a single cell multiple number formats based on what the number is in the cell. So for example if my number is bigger than 1000, I would like to use comas so that it looks like this 1,000. However, if it is less than 1000 I would like it to look more like this 999.00.

I am creating a chart and want to get a count of only the blank cells in Column D only if there is information contained in Column A (same row). I am using Excel 2003.

I have this formula which is counting the number of cells in a column that fall within each calender month.
However, if there is a formula at the bottom of column B and C that yield a "", the formula breaks.
In my workbook, B/C:133 have a formula =""
I will need the formula in column E to work if there is a formula that yields a "" in column B and C.

I need to count the number of non blank cells in a column and add a text string to the result to show, for example, "75 Clubs" as the result. I have tried "=Count(A1:A90) + Clubs" but this does not work.

I am using the following to count my blank rows.
=COUNTIF(report!N2:N303,"")
Using a formula, rather than VBA, how can I modify this formula to accomodate a variable ending range. Without thinking I initially just counted the blanks in column N - yes there were lots of blanks. My goal is for the end user to not have to modify the formula.
I have the following formula in H2
=COUNTA(report!B:B)-1
which would give me the number of rows used for the month. I tried referencing the countif to cell H2 but, as of yet, have not been successful.

I am trying to count the number of times a code appears in column N, IF the corresponding cell on column T is blank. Column T either has a date or is blank and column N has a 4 letter code.
This is what i have been trying.
=SUMPRODUCT((CMRF!T:T=ISBLANK)*(CMRF!N:N="B2"))
I want the code in column N to match to the code currently in cell B2, i have also tried using "" instead of ISBLANK but i get # NUM! error as a result either way. the result should just be a number i.e. 400 (cells with the same code as B2 and no date in cell T)

I have a spreadsheet that contains given answers to a multiple choice test. I want to count the number of times each possible answer has been chosen at the bottom of the column. I have tried to use COUNTIF and that works fine to give me the number times each answer has been chosen but there is just one annoying thing. If the given answer hasn't been chosed by anyone, a "0" is automatically entered into the cell. This tends to really clutter up the spreadsheet and I would prefer for the cell to be left blank if the answer hasn't been chosen by anyone.
The closest I can come up with is: {=IF(D1:D10="","",COUNTIF(D1:D10,"A"))} but unless the answer "A" is chosed in D1, the cell remains blank.
If "A" is chosed in D1, then the formula works and counts all the rest of the cells that have "A" as an answer.

I can count the blank cells withiin a range using
=COUNTBLANK(C6:AD2506)
But I dont want it to count the cells if the entire row, within that cell, i.e. C6:AD6, is blank.
It should only count the blank cells within a row if there has been some data entered on that row..provided it has been entered within the specified range.

I would like to place a formula in cells A2 down that does a running count of unique combinations of columns B and C.
For example, the first record is a white dog, so at that point there is 1 category of dog, next is a brown dog, so there there is now 2 categories etc.
I initially tried to adapt an array formula 1/COUNTIF($B$2:$B8,$B$2:$B8) but this wont quite do the trick.

I have a spreadsheet with three columns (check #, invoice #, vendor #). If a check pays multiple invoices, there is a separate row for each instance of invoice #. (ie if a check pays 10 invoices, there are 10 rows all with the same value for check # and vendor #, but different invoice #s). I need to concatenate the multiple rows to just one row per check #, with all the invoice #s in separate columns on the same row and delete the duplicate check # rows.
However, I can only use 10 columns, so if there are more than 8 invoices matching the same check #, the 10th column will need to contain invoices 9-n concatenated and separated by a space. I have over 5000 rows in the spreadsheet.

I need to count column E when it does not say "MTO" or if column G is blank. E.g. below would return me a value of 2. I would count row 1 and 3 only.
Column E Column G

I'm trying to develop a new daily timesheet for my production workers, where non-production items are recorded in 15 minute intervals. The user would put in "Clock in" by the corresponding time, and the same for "Clock out" at the end of the day. Any non-production items will be type in next to their appropriate time. Since clock in and clock out times will vary, I need to set up a formula that searches the array of cells for the day, finds the "Clock in" and "Clock out" values, and counts any blank cells in between them. Basically the blank cells will equal production time, and the result of the Count function will be multiplied by 0.25 to get the hours.
I am having a very difficult time finding a way to set the "Clock in" and "Clock out" cells as the range for the Count function, because it won't always be the same cells. What would be the best way to automatically have excel find the cells containing these values and set them as the range criteria for a Count function?
The formula at the bottom was one of my initial attempts, but it didn't work. I took out the '=' for the screenshot, so that wasn't the problem.

Getting a formula or macro that count the number of blank cells between 2 cells with data (numbers) in 1 column. E.g.
1
Blank
Blank
2
Blank
Blank
Blank
3
...
In this case the blanks between 1 and 2, between 2 and 3 to be displayed in an adjacent column.

how to create a macro that will count blank cells. I've tried several different variations of a basic 'count cells' macro, but I can't seem to find the right one.
If anyone would be kind enough to post a solution VBA, I would be extremely thankful, and so would my superiors. I'm an intern trying to get my foot in the door, and this would certainly be a first major step for me.

I have a spreadsheet where I'm trying to determine the number of weeks that have transpired since the last sale of an item. COUNTBLANK is the direction I started in but it only shows the number of blank cells, it doesn't count the blanks until it recognizes a numeric value and stop. Essentially, I need a "count until x happens" function.
I've attached an example to walk through the issue. The weeks are across the top, the item number in col A, and I've put the result I'm expecting in col B.

I would like a macro to do this...If a cell in column G is blank and the cell in the same row in column C is NOT blank, highlight the blank cell in column G Red.
I need the search to stop ONLY when it gets down to the bottom-most row of data in column A.
Note: Any row headers will always be in row 1 only

getting a formula to do this
I have
......D E
5 )......1
6 )......2
7 )......3
8 )......4
9 )......5
10)......6
11)......7
etc down to 31
They only show up when the cell next to it is not empty.
=IF(ISBLANK(D5),"0",(1))
=IF(ISBLANK(D6),"0",(2))
etc
If nothing is put into say D5 D6 or D7 but something is put in D8 then i would like E8 to become 1 as it is the first to be filled.Then when D9 has something in it, it becomes 2 if D10 has nothing in it it gets left blank but when d11 has something in it e11 becomes 4 counting the blank cell in between.
How can this be done.

So what I have is an unknown number of rows, starting at row 2. The first row (row 2) contains information from A2:M2 but all rows after this in column M will be blank up to a particular row. What I want to do, is count how many rows are blank in the column M up to the last blank cell and fill this with a specific word. I have attached a basic layout workbook to show what I want. There is a comment on cell M3.

I have several in a row Cells A2: AE2 'I need to count all the empty cells but has a discretion.
If you find the letter 'X' will count all the empty cells before the 'X'.
DSA
X
1
2
3
4
5
6
0
0
0
0
See the example all cells that was before the 'X' were counted.
The result would be six cells (C3=6)

I have a master sheet which shows from Jan to Dec (in 1 sheet), so I did a break down on each tab e.g Jan (First Tab), Feb (Second Tab), etc.
So basically now i have some cells that are blank, in the breakdown sheet which i copied from the master copy.
i use counta but it returns me 140 instead of 130(manually calculated). im guessing that is because in every cell of Jan tab i have "=master!D1" in it.
how do i formulate a proper formula for this?

This formula counts how many dates in the range match the month in cell (Q3). How do I get this formula to to not count empty cells. I keep getting $VALUE! as my answer when I include all the cells in the range.
This is the formula:
=SUMPRODUCT(--(P20:P976-DAY(P20:P976)+1=DATE(YEAR(Q3),MONTH(Q3),1)))
This is the formula in the cells of the range that is being used above:
=IF(D26="","",IF(F26"",F26,IF(I26"",I26,IF($Q$3"",$Q$3))))
I needed this formula to leave the cell blank if all the data cells were blank that's why I have =IF(D26="","", at the begining.

I am looking for a formula to count 2 blank cells (and return the value as 1 rather than two) but only when the cell preceding has data in it. eg in A11 there is data but in A12 & A13 it is empty = 1. PS If you are on the boards Jim I will email you an update when I get home tonight.
