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")

Bob... Appreciate the input. Not there yet, it could be me! To expand a bit
J10=1
J13=1
K13=3
L14=5
L15=6
J17=1
M17=4
J19=1
etc.....
The above Result should be 6 activity days

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.

Wayne

In O10 =IF(SUM(J10:N10)0,1,0) Copy down to O40
In O41 =SUM(O10:O40)
