Is there a way to count the number of occurances in a range that are alpha numeric and the result of the formula that is in each cell within the range?

Thanks in advance

What does custom number format of ;;; mean?
Three semi-colons will hide the value in the cell. Although most people use white font instead.
Can you give some samples of what you are trying to count exactly?

Hi,

Your current formula in I6: =COUNTA(B8:B42)-1-COUNTIF(B9:B42,0)

You can do this, it's not necessarily better, just another way: =COUNTIF(B8:B42,"=*")-1

I agree with that, although the = isn't necessary, it's the default.

=COUNTIF(B8:B42,"*")-1

Thanks to Scott & jtakw.
That is exactly what I needed, to simplify it.
The less it calculates the better!!

Regards,
