Hi Fernando
if you did the highlighting manually (and not with conditional format)
try the following:
1. Insert the macro code from below
2. Now enter the following formula (to count all cells within the range
A1:C100 which met your criteria (that is they a neither highlighte nor
numeric nor blank)
=SUMPRODUCT((colorindex(A1:C100)=2)*(NOT(ISNUMBER(A1:C100)))*(A1:C100<>
""))
