Counting dates with Conditional Formatting
I have 3 columns a,b,c.Column a,b contains dates.The dates in these columns turn red if it is less than today.Column c is Status field which contains D or M(M=Match, D=DOne).If the Status field is D the date is no more red even if it is less than today( I set conditional formatting).Now,I want to count the number of red dates in cloumn a or b .The status for these dates in not D. |

Counting dates with Conditional Formatting
Hi T.Valko,
Thanks for your feedback. But there is still something I need to fix. I do have Blank cells in the Columns a &b. And if there is a red date in both a1 and b1, I just want to count it as 1 and not 2. I will appreciate your help. Thanks!

Counting dates with Conditional Formatting
if there is a red date in both a1 and b1, I just
want to count it as 1 and not 2. Ok, in other words you want to count the number of ROWS that meet the condition, not every cell? Try this: =SUMPRODUCT(--(MMULT(--(A1:B10"")*(A1:B10TODAY()),{1;1})0),--(C1:C10"D")) This will only work if the range is less than 5462 rows. If that doesn't work then you'll have to use some VBA code and it's more complicated since you're using conditional formatting.

If you want to send me a *small* sample file that shows what you have and
tell me what result you expect I can probably figure this out.

Yes, I have the file open in front on me.
Please verify that this is what you want to do: You want to count "red dates" in columns J and K by row (not each cell) if status in column L is not "D" ? -- Biff Microsoft Excel MVP "NM" wrote in message ...
