I thought this would be simple, but I seem to be missing something.

I want to count the number times the value in the cell in column R matches the same value of a cell in the same row in column A.

For instance

A1 = R1
A5 = R5
A93 = R93

Then the total will be three.

I've been trying to use the CountIf function - but is there another way to do this?

Thanks.....

Customize Quick Access Toolbar. From All Commands, add Speak Cells or Speak Cells on Enter to QAT. Select cells. Press Speak Cells.
Try:

Code:
=SUMPRODUCT(--(A1:A93=R1:R93))

or if you don't want to include blank cells:

Code:
=SUMPRODUCT(--(A1:A100=R1:R100),--(A1:A100<>""))
