    Counting Cells while Disregarding Text

    I am trying to count all of the customer numbers in our database greater than 3000. Unfortunately, all of the cells have the word "Customer" in front of them i.e. "Customer 3001". What formula can I use to solve my dilemma?

    Hi,

    Assuming that your list is in A2:A100, and that every entry within that range contains the word "Customer":

    =SUMPRODUCT(--(0+TRIM(SUBSTITUTE(A2:A100,"Customer",""))>3000))

    Try

    =SUMPRODUCT(--((SUBSTITUTE(A1:A20,"Customer ",""))*1>3000))
