in excel how do I count cells that begin with specific text. Ex: in a
column with 100 entries, I want to count the number of cells that have the
letters "app" from the word approved as the first three characters in the cell
I am trying to create a formula that sums all the cells that have numbers that begin with 12. For example, here are the numbers in cells A1 through A6 (my actual spreadsheet is much larger):
12
1200
13
1
120
112
I want to pull the 12, 1200, and 120 for a total of 1332.
CELLS AA5:AA64 will have either EF, CS, SBS and/or, RP. Cell AA16 could be "EF / CS / SBS" and AA20 could be CS. I want Cell AA65 to count show how many CS's have been entered in that range. How would I do this.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have a spreadsheet where i would like to 'count' the number of cells with a particular colour AND SPECIFIC text (not 'any text').
I attach a xls with the initials of the person in column A, their colour as seen in cells in next four columns with the particular text in each cell. Therefore, for 'ABC1', in the given range, I would like to count how many cells have been allocated with the particular colour (brown, do not know colour index) and the particular text (1 or 2 or 4 or 5) in the range A1:CK39. Haven't supplied the actual sheet for confidentiality reasons.
I have a spreadsheet that lists all the work done by employees within a specific area. Some employees cover multiple areas.
I am now needing to work out the average work completed by each area. I need a formula that will count the number of employees by each work area.
I know this is something I have done before, but my mind has gone blank and I can't for the life of me work it out again (it's one of those days).
Row 3 of the spreadsheet contains the codes for the work areas they cover (CM, V & TC) and some employees only cover one (which would be a simple CountIf) but some have multiple.
What is the formula to, for example, count the number of people who have CM in row 3 even if they also have other entries in that cell.
I want to use the SumIf function to sum cells when other cells begin with certain characters.
I've toyed with a few ideas of how this could work, but i don't know how to specify that the cells need to begin with certain characters. The cells that would be the criteria and the ones that would be summed come out of an Oracle database (and i have no control over the way they're pulled out - yet) so the beginning characters are connected to extremely unique information, so i dont want that to be included in the if part, for obvious reasons.
I have attached an excel sheet and I want to count and report frequencies the amount of X that are occurring from the 'CSR1' book in a table in the 'Frequency' book.
The CSR1 book has 4 sections and I need to formula to adjust the total percentage accordingly if only 1, 2, 3 or 4 sections have been populated with data.

I know the following would count all used cells in a worksheet but what about a specific column?
Here is the formula I am currently using:
=SUMPRODUCT((Sheet1!B19:E15235="Contact Sheet Available/Disc Sent")*(MONTH(Sheet1!H19:H15235)=MONTH(TODAY())))
This counts all entries with the status "Contact Sheet Available/Disc Sent" and that have a timestamp within the current month.

I want to count the number of groups of 3 adjacent cells in a horizontal range (C5:EV5) in which any cell in the group of 3 has a value in it (as opposed to all the cells being blank or containing "0"). For example, if any or all of the cells in C5:E5 have a value in it, it would count as 1, and if any of the cells in the group F5:H5 have a value, it would also count as 1, and so on. Is there a way to use COUNTIF for this?
View 5 Replies View RelatedI 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 have a spreadsheet which is linked to several other worksheets. I have managed to include formulas to count how many cells have numbers between 101 and 5000 by using this formula -
=sum((h2:h500>=101)*(h2:h500<=5000))
but now I want to count the number of cells in another worksheet that are equal to or less than zero. When I use the same formula as above it counts all the blank cells. I have tried using a countblank formula and then deducting this from the result, but unless the other worksheet is open the countblank formula does not work.
I'm trying to find vehicle make and model in a cell containing a lot of text and then display that in the formula cell. For example if A1 is a paragraph that contains somewhere within it "Ford" & "Ranger". I want B1 to display "Ford" and C1 to display "Ranger". I have a list of vehicles makes (column A) and models (column B) on a seperate sheet.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI am exporting lots of data from a website and for some reason to do with html i am getting &nbsp; in a few cells in my description column (column C), i think that means "& " in html. this occurs in some cells but not others when i paste it into Excel.

I know I can do it with crtl H and the replace field blank but I would like a formula so in the future the user will simply have to paste information and then get converted information out (as they will struggle to use excel).

View 6 Replies View RelatedWhat i need it for certain colored text to appear in specific total cells.
For example; i have 38 cells in a column within these cells id like it to have black writing which i want to total up and go into a total for that color into a specific cell and say green colored text into a different total cell and red text into another total cell.
If i had for instance 6 numbers all red 6 numbers all black and 6 green id like the numbers to all be added correctly and also into color specific cells?
The easiest way of explaining what I'm after is to say, I have letters of the alphabet, in their own cells, and I want to find them by way of a search. I don't mind how this is done, but it would be good if for example you entered A, C and E, any cells containing those letters changed, maybe became bold, or the cell filled with colour.
