I am doing a list and putting X like a check box for yes and a blank cell for no.
How can I count how many cells have a X in it.
 
Hi David

by using the COUNTIF function - which has two parameters
=COUNTIF(range to check, criteria)

so if your list is in column A then you could use the following formula in
say B1
=COUNTIF(A:A,"X")

i assumed there that the "X" was created by clicking on the x key on your
keyboard - if not, and the above doesn't work, please repost


Hope this helps
Cheers
