    Count Formula

    Hi All,

    I think there is an easy solution to this problem however i cant think of it.

    I want to add up all the cells in a given range that are above the cutoff number. (apologies if i have not explained well) it makes more sense on the excel sheet.

    Regards,

    Adam

    Yes, it is easy:

    =COUNTIF($I$5:$I$26,">="&C5)

    Thanks =).

    I actually never would have got that. What function does the & sign serve as?

    If you did it this way:

    =COUNTIF($I$5:$I$26,">=C5")

    Excel would see C5 as text, and would find no matches in the numbers array.

    By doing this:

    =COUNTIF($I$5:$I$26,">="&C5)

    Excel can still understand the operators, but knows that it's looking for numbers.
