Hello,

I have 27 rows listed # to Z. What I'm trying to do is count how many entries in my table begin with each letter as well as 0-9. I've been able to figure out the A-Z part but the number part eludes me.

The numbers are formatted as text but also I'd like to combine them in such a way that any listing in my "Name" column that starts with a number would be counted. As an example, if "101 Dalmations" and "40 Days and 40 Nights" were listed in the name column, I'd expect to see a 2.


This is the formula that I have working for letters.
Code:
=COUNTIF(tblMovies[Name],E2&"*")
 

Excel Facts

Workdays for a market open Mon, Wed, Friday?
Yes! Use "0101011" for the weekend argument in NETWORKDAYS.INTL or WORKDAY.INTL. The 7 digits start on Monday. 1 means it is a weekend.
