How can you get around the count function seeing formulas in any cell
referenced as data? |

Count function seeing formulas as data
I don't think COUNT will, COUNT yes, but not COUNT unless it returns a
number. Give an example. -- HTH Bob "robinessex" wrote in message ... How can you get around the count function seeing formulas in any cell referenced as data? |

Count function seeing formulas as data
Hi,
I don't understand the question. Perhaps if you tell us what you are trying to count and the types of data in the cells being counted someone will help. -- Mike When competing hypotheses are otherwise equal, adopt the hypothesis that introduces the fewest assumptions while still sufficiently answering the question.

I'm sure Bob meant =CountA() will count cells with formulas.
=Count() will count cells with formulas if the formulas evaluate to a number. Bob Phillips wrote: I don't think COUNT will, COUNT yes, but not COUNT unless it returns a number.

It only sees "formulas" as data if the formula returns a numeric value. If you could be more specific as to what you are trying to do, you might get some useful advice. |
