COUNTA counting formulas as well.

[Gaurav]

F17/(AVERAGE(C17,B17))*(12/(COUNTA(B5:B16)))

in B5:B16, I have this formula..
=IF(SUM(Start:End!B5)=0,"",SUM(Start:End!B5))

Now the problem is...the COUNTA function in the first formula above is
counting all the cells in the range B5:B16. I want it to NOT count the cells
which are blank as a result of the formula (The second formula above). I
want it to count only if the result is >=0.

Ideas?

Maybe something like this:

=F17/(AVERAGE(C17,B17))*(12/(SUMPRODUCT(--(B5:B16<>""))))

Great!! That worked.

Thanks.

Maybe something like this:
