Count Formula

[Guest]

Good Afternoon ...
This questions is probably redundant, however, my question is how to write
the formula to count, and excluding certain criteria. For example:
Column A
1111
2921
2222
2921
3344
3333
4444
Count the entries, but do not include the numbers 2921 and 3344. Results
should equal 4.

=sumproduct(--(a1:a7<>2921)*(--(a1:a7<>3344))

One possibility is:

=COUNT(A1:A7)-COUNTIF(A1:A7,"2921")-COUNTIF(A1:A7,"3344")

FYI ... my data has 89 rows x 9 columns, with the criteria being in column G.
I tried the formula and the results were the exact number of rows, 89. I
double-checked the data, and it is numberic. Any other suggestions??

So your criteria is in the middle of your table which is odd??

If you put your criteria in J1 and J2 then this should work

=SUMPRODUCT(--(A1:I89<>J1)*(--(A1:I89<>J2)))

=SUMPRODUCT(--(A1:I89<>J1),--(A1:I89<>J2))

or

=SUMPRODUCT((A1:I89<>J1)*(A1:I89<>J2))

no need for both

[Bob Phillips]

=COUNT(IF(A1:I89<>{2921,23344},A1:I89))

which is an array formula, it should be committed with Ctrl-Shift-Enter, not
just Enter.
