I'd like to use a COUNTIF function with criteria being all visible rows set
in the column filter. Thanks-
 
Assuming that you'd like to count the number of cells in Column B that
meet the criteria, in a filtered list, try...

=SUMPRODUCT(SUBTOTAL(3,OFFSET(B2:B100,ROW(B2:B100)-ROW(B2),0,1)),--(B2:B1
00="Criteria"))

If the criteria is a numerical value, remove the quotes.

Hope this helps!
 
Hi

SUBTOTAL is the function, which uses data filtered by autofilter as source.
The 1st parameter determines, which of 11 various functions is imited - look
for SUBTOTAL worksheet function in MS Excel Help.
 
So, my previous reply mixed in from a different question... der. But your
reply did help me count ocurrences on my filter.

Thanks!
 
Thanks Domenic,

I got this approach to work, but it wasn't easy :)
Your Excel sills are quite a bit beyond mine.

I ended up using the SUBTOTAL function to determine the number of results
returned after applying my autofilter.

Thanks again for your reply. You've help me understand SUMPRODUCT better.
