I can't seem to come up with the right code to say the following:

Count if $H&1:$H199 = "5th" and if B2 = "Active"

H1:199 will always be the same reference. B2 will change to c3, etc.

Help please
Hank

What about this...

=COUNTIF(A:A, A1)

A:A will never change
A1 will change when you paste down...

If that's not the answer could you tell me what exactly you want as
the end result?

AND(COUNTIF($H$1:$H$99,"5th")=99,B2="Active")

--
HTH

From your answer I assume I did not ask the question to suit you.

Sorry if I offended you with my ignorance.

What I want is if Column H1:H199 has the word "5th" in it AND Cell b2 has
the word "Active" in it, I want a count of 1. IF cell B2 has anything
beside "5th" it would not be counted. If Column H1:H199 has anthing beside
the word "Active" it would not be counted.
