Count specific cells in a column

[martins]

My worksheet contains rows B19:B24.
B19,B21,B23 contains formulas for picking up data from elsewhere in the workbook (the data can be text and numeric).
B20,B22,B24 are blank and formatted for entering text

I would like to count when data is input to cells B19,B21,B23 and ignore cells B20/22/24.
I have tried to use CountA but it appears to be picking up the formulas in cells B19/21/23.

What do I need to do?
