creating a formula

[wwoody]

I have a col that i have plus and minus numbers in them and
i want a count of all the records in the col. but i want to exclude the 0 records. Currently i use =count(d3:d70)
and have tried countif((d3:d71)((<>0)) with no luck.
any suggestions?

Try this:

=COUNTIF(D3:D70,"<>0")

=SUM(IF(A1:A100<>0,1))
entered using SHIFT+CTRL+ENTER
