    Counting different letters in a row to get a total

    Hi there

    I am starting to put a rota together of people's availability. I need to be able to add up all the letters used in a row to get a total which would sit in the column titled 'Availability' (see attached sheet).

    Any help would be greatly appreciated!

    Cheers

    Re: Counting different letters in a row to get a total

    Not very clear of which letters you want to count. Is it all "A" or all letters in the row?

    All "A"

    =COUNTIF(B3:N3,"A")

    All in the row

    =COUNTIF(B3:N3,"<>")

    That's the one I was looking for. Thank you very much!
