    VBA - Automate counting ranges in excel spreadsheet

    I have a table that looks like this:

    ER Visits
    Control #
    2055
    2056
    2057
    2058
    2059

    and I want to count how many ER visits are in the table. The catch is that I have a lot of excel spreadsheets with more or less ER visits. I need a VBA code that can count them for me automatically when I open each spreadsheet, without me editing this code over and over again:

    Sub ER()
    Range("G6") = WorksheetFunction.counta(Range("A20:A24"))
    End Sub


    Thanks!

    Thanks for sending this. For some reason it doesn't count correctly. I should have 45 but it gives me 94...

    Attach a sample workbook (not a picture or pasted copy). Make sure there is just enough data to demonstrate your need. Include a BEFORE sheet and an AFTER sheet in the workbook if needed to show the process you're trying to complete or automate. Make sure your desired results are shown, mock them up manually if necessary.

    Remember to desensitize the data.

    What can I say? It works for me. Only you know what your workbook, worksheet and data look like. I have to make it up ... and with what I made up, it works.

    I suspect you may have more data lower down the column, perhaps hidden. Who knows?

    Re: VBA - Automate counting ranges in excel spreadsheet

    Okay, see attached a sample file.
    I have a lot of files like this, but the counts for those categories will vary from spreadsheet to spreadsheet and I need the code to count them for me instead of me counting them manually...

    OK, well you could just use a formula in cell G6:

    If you really feel the need for VBA, the simplest implementation (IMO) would be:
