  1. I skimmed the comments and didn't see my situation listed:
    I want to determine the number of unique entries in a column (D:D) that fall between a pair of dates (say a1 and a2) where the dates of the events are in a different column (J:J).
    I know I can count all of the entries in the date range using
    =COUNTIFS(!J:J, ""&A2)
    and I know I can count all of the unique entries in D:D using
    =SUMPRODUCT((D:D"")/COUNTIF(D:D,D:D&""))

    How do I put them together?

    1. That didn't post right:
      COUNTIFS(J:J, ""&A2)

      1. It's not posting correctly, but hopefully you can interpret what I mean.
        COUNTIFS(J:J, ""&A2)

        Thank you for any help.

        1. Hello!

          Regrettably, we don't know the way to fulfill your task using just one formula. You can either add a helper column or use a VBA macro.

          For example, you can enter one of the following formulas in cell K2 (if unique entries are checked by column D and date range):
          1 =IF(AND(J2>=$A$1,J2<=$A$2,COUNTIFS(D:D,D2,J:J,">="&$A$1,J:J,"<="&$A$2)=1),1,0)

          If you check for unique data only by column D:
          2 =IF(AND(J2>=$A$1,J2<=$A$2,COUNTIF(D:D,D2)=1),1,0)

          Just copy the formula to the other cells of the helper column and then sum the data in the column.

          1. Thank you for the quick and informative reply.

            1. Hi
              I want to use coutifs to select some criteria and count the number of unique numbers (or text) in a column.
              Is this possible?

              eg I have a list of product codes and each code as a different column for the colour, I want to count the number of product codes (ie some are in more than once)

              Cheers, Kate

  2. Is it possible to change the value of a cell so that is counted as two as opposed to one? I'm using COUNTIF to calculate the number of hours each employee is working in a schedule, but some cells equate to 2 hours and others equate to 3.

    1. Hi Abby,

      And how do you determine that a particular cell equates 2, or 3 or 1?

  3. In cells A1 to A30 I have 2 alphabets A&E and in the BCells have values .I need a formula to count the no. Of values of A& E in the Bcell. Pl help

    1. Hello Gespion,

      Try the following formulas:

      Sum values in column B corresponding to "A" in column A:
      =SUMIF(A1:A20,"a",B1:B30)

      Sum values in column B corresponding to "E" in column A:
      =SUMIF(A1:A20,"e",B1:B30)

  4. Hi,

    Your example 4: The formula show B and C cells but you highlighted B and D cells in the printscreen.

    Regards.

  5. Hi - how can I find the LATEST TIME for different products. Product can be repeated multiple times. example:

    Prod1 - 12:30
    Prod1 - 13:45
    Prod2 - 07:00
    Prod2 - 16:00
    Prod1 - 09:00

    Now it should report Prod1 as 13:45 and Prod2 as 16:00.

    Thanks for your help in advance.

  6. Hey Svetlana Cheusheva, I am trying to count values in a column, but I would like to leave out all the blanks and 0 values. Any help would be appreciated.

  7. Hi,

    I have a doubt in excel. I have row from a1 to d1 with numbers or string and c1 have no numbers or string.

    what i am looking is when any cell is blank then the formula would return the text otherwise sum of all number from a1 to d1.

    reply or solutions much appreciated

    thanks

    1. hi

      Can you explain with an example?

      If you come with an example that would be great

    2. I don't have too much experience but I think a simple if min=0 then text else sum shoulf=d be easy to make.

  8. Hi there,

    Here is the formula I am working with that almost produced the desired result:
    =COUNTIF('Entity SPORTS'!$A6:$A20,"'Entity SUMMARY'!A6")+COUNTIF('Entity SPORTS'!$C6:$C20,"m")

    I want to count ONLY IF the first part is true AND the second part is true. Should I be using a different type of formula?

    To provide some context: On one worksheet I have a list of clubs (column a - club name is repeated as many times as there are people in the club), the names of the people in the clubs (column b), and their gender (column c, listed as M or F). I want to summarize the number of males and females for each club on a separate worksheet so that column A states the club name, column b will have the number of M, and column C will have the number of F.

    Any help would be greatly appreciated!

  9. Hi Svetlana, I just sent you an email asking for your help with a formula. Thank you so much for all you do!

  10. Hi, Svetlana,

    Do you know if you can use countifs accross multiple worksheets? I'm tyring to count an occurance of a entry from a pick list, it occurs in the same column on each sheet but I can't find out how to reference multiple sheets?

    Any help would be greatly apprciated!

    1. Hi Brandy,

      Just add a sheet's name with the exclamation mark before the range, for example like this:
      =COUNTIFS(Sheet1!A:A,1, Sheet2!A:A,1)

      This formula counts how many 1's there are in column A in Sheet1 and Sheet2 in the same rows.

      1. Hello Svetlana,
        Iam impressed with your suggestions given above.
        below is the table for date & related days. I want count of total Saturdays. Means it should not consider repeated entries of same dates.
        My result should be 2.

        Can you help me
        3-Jan-15 Sat
        3-Jan-15 Sat
        10-Jan-15 Sat
        10-Jan-15 Sat

        Thanks in advance.

        1. Hello Tushar,

          If you want to count only unique Saturdays, then you need to add a helper column to your table.

          Please enter the following formula into the 2nd cell of the helper column:
          =IF(AND(COUNTIF($A$2:A2,A2)=1,WEEKDAY(A2,2)=6),1,0)

          Where A is the column with dates.

          Then just copy the formula down to the end. After that you need to sum this column, e.g. =sum(C:C)
          Where C is the helper column.

    Hi,

    I'm trying to get a count of common digit like (1234-2345-2789-1289-2548 = 2 100% 4 50% 8 50% 3 20%

    Please help

  12. Hi Svetlana,

    Just mailed you my sheet can you help me with that please

  13. Just mailed you my sheet can you help me with that please

  14. Hi,

    I'm trying to get a count of dates that are due but on condition that they are listed as being follow up. My countif for follow up works fine {=countif(Q2:Q,"*up")}, and my countif for overdue dates works fine {="Follow up (due = "&countif(J2:J,"<="&today()&" )")}, but no matter what I do I can't manage to combine them. Any help would be much appreciated.

    Thanx.

    1. Turns out that the was a bracket in the wrong place:
      ="Follow up (due = "&countif(J2:J,"<="&today())&" )"
      works very nicely.

  15. Hello,
    Problem I cannot seem solve.
    Looking for a formula that counts occurrences of a value IF they occur after a certain date.
    This works fine with SUMIF e.g. =SUMIF($O$2:$IU$2;"<=" & TODAY();O26:IU26) Where the sum of numbers after a certain date are returned.

    DATASET looks like:
    DATES : 25/10|26/10|27/10|28/10|29/10...
    TASK A done by: A | B | A | A | C
    TASK B done by: B | A | B | C | A

    I want to know how many times A, B and C occur after TODAY...

    Thanks a lot for your much appreciated help!

    Floris

    1. Hello Floris,

      Please specify how many tasks and how many A/B/C/ for each task you have. Are the dates sorted in ascending order? Do you want to get the result on the same sheet or on a new one?
      Anyway, I believe the best solution for this task is to use a VBA macro.

  16. Hi Swetlana,
    Hope you doing well.
    I am having difficulty with formulas of multiple critearia.

    My formulas below is worked with me.
    =Countif(ACTL!B3:B50001;A$1;ACTL!$E$2:$E$50000;B$2;ACTL!$G$2:$G$50000;$B7)
    I want to add one more criteria which is date period.My Dates coloumn is starting from C1 till C1000.
    The target date is at B1(15oct2014)
    How can I continue to my formulas which will give me the total after 15Oct2014.
    If you can help me on it will be appreciate.

    Thanks & Regards.
    Utkan

    1. Hi Utkan,

      All ranges in COUNTIFS formulas should have the same number of rows and columns. Most likely, you need this formula:

      =COUNTIFS(ACTL!B3:B50001;A$1;ACTL!$E$2:$E$50000;B$2;ACTL!$G$2:$G$50000;$B7, ACTL!$C$2:$C$50000;$B$1)

  17. Hi,

    2nd Row: ASDF DSFA FGHJ WERT, SDFA .....

    I want the latest comment and date at the end of row for each row.

    Please help me

    Center Revised Date 2nd PM Plan Date 3rd PM Plan Date Total Count

    Bannu-1 1-Oct-14 1-Oct-14 Blank ?(Answers should be 2)

    1. Hello Muhammad,

      You can use this formula to count all non-blank cells:
      =COUNTIF(B2:F2,"*")

      To count only dates and numbers greater than 0, please use the following array formula (you have to press Ctrl + Shift + Enter to complete it):

      {=SUM(--NOT(ISERROR(DATEVALUE(TEXT(A2:F2,"mm/dd/yyy")))))}

      Where A2:F2 is the range you want to count.

  19. Hi,
    Is there a way to have a total price adjusted based on the day they typed a quantity into a cell? Lets say price goes up on oct 24 for apples, from $10 to $15. Is there a way to have it calculate the order of 2 apples on Oct 23 (before the 24th), but also calculate the total if they order the apples on the 25th (after the 24th)? If they didn't type in the quantity till after the advanced priced date. This has to be real time.

    Thanks, Ryan

  20. Hi,

    I am counting up unique string values in a range of cells in a column. Tow of the values are "Uses Look Up" and "Value in table". To attempt to get a sum of the counts of the 2, I set up the COUNTIFS functions as follows:

    =COUNTIFS(F1:F128,"=Uses Look Up",F1:F128,"=Value in table")

    The value retuned is 0, however, when I count them separately the count is 75. Why did the COUNTIFS function return 0?

    Thanks, Carlo

  21. Hello,

    I have an excel file with 2 worksheets: the first worksheet contains 10 columns and 10 rows with random values (A, B, C, D, E).

    I need a formula in the second worksheet to count the number of times that value "B" appears after value "A" in the first worksheet.

    It's really important and urgent, if you can answer this you would save me a big headache.

    Thank you

  22. I am trying to create a formula that will give the total number of cells within a range that contain a letter. The formula I currently have is: =COUNTIFS(C4:AC4,"=L",C4:AC4,"=F",C4:AC4,"=T"), however it is ot correct because within this range of cells three of them contain each a letter which are the ones in the formula and my total shows as 0 instead of 3.

    What should I change to get it corrected or would it be possible to even have such formula?

  23. Hi, is it possible to count B4:D200 (multiple column) and a column of uncategorized age to be counted in a column of categorized age?

  24. Hi,

    I want the cell range in =COUNTIFS to be variable, ie. it might be b4:b60 on one occasion, then with a different set of data it might be b4:b70.
    Can the COUNTIFs formula pull the range in from another cell if the range is entered there?

    Thanks,

  26. Hi,

    I have a project involving several varying length lists of email addresses which are overlapping, meaning there are duplicate values between the various lists. Additionally, the list order from left to right is important. Each list is an adjacent column in a single worksheet.

    I would like to be able to identify (highlight via conditional formatting) the duplicate values in each successive list (column) occuring in the preceding list(s) to the left of column I'm evaluating, working my way to the nth column all the way to the right in my worksheet. For example, evaluating column B, highlight all cells where there is a duplicate value somewhere in column A. Evaluating column C, highlight all cells where there is a duplicate value anywhere in columns A or B. And so on up to my last column (20) which will be evaluated for matching values anywhere in the other 19 preceding columns to the left. Note that there are no duplicate values within any single list.

    Is there a formula I can use to achieve this goal? Thanks for any suggestions you can offer!

  27. I'm trying to calculate how many times a particular staff is scheduled to work during the week. This staff can be assigned to work in a different location so she can be listed in a column (to specify the day of the week) and rows are the location. The only problem is that I would only be needing to add two to five cells in a column, then another few cells from another column. How would I need to indicate that I'm adding another command?

  28. I am working with multiple workbooks, about 30. Each workbook has the names of associates that performed different tasks in it. I am trying to count how many times each persons name is used in all the workbooks.
    (Ex. Workbook 1 - Jane is used twice, Bill three times. Workbook 2 - Jane is used 4 times, Bill 1 time. Jane's total would 6 and Bill's would be 4 within two workbooks. Can the COUNTIF or COUNTIFS functions acomplish this in an easy way?
    Thanks!

    Your help is great appreciated

    1. You can use the following array formula (remember to press Ctrl + Shift + Enter):
      {=SUM((B2:B6>=10)*(B2:B6>A2:A6))}

  31. I am trying to take 2 tables - Galaxy Theatre and Empire Theatre. Each table contains a list of the theatres and the gendre of movie playing in the theatre. I need to count the number of horror movies playing in each theatre (provide a total for each theatre) using one equation. Is this possible?

    The question suggests using an indrect to help, but I cannot get the Indirect function to work with countif.

    1. Hello Nancy,

      You can use the following formula to sum the results:
      =CountIf(GalaxyTheatre[Genre],"Horror") + CountIf(EmprireTheatre[Genre],"Horror")

  32. Svetlana and team – I enjoyed reading your blog about the “COUNTIFS” function, but am having problems using it. I have a worksheet that I want to count the number of unduplicated rows with two different criteria. I want to count the number of completed actions by analyst, but only count each class code once. The class code is in column “G”, the analyst (there are five different analysts) is in column “C”, and the analysis/recommendation is in column “AF”. When an analysis is completed for a particular class code, the column “AF” has some text. If the analysis is not complete, “AF” is empty.

    I can successfully count the number of unduplicated class codes in my worksheet, by using:
    =SUM(IF(FREQUENCY(MATCH(G2:G7497,G2:G7497,0),MATCH(G2:G7497,G2:G7497,0))>0,1))
    My worksheet has 7,495 rows of duplicated class codes and 3.666 rows of unduplicated class codes.

    I can successfully count the number of analyses completed by analyst, by using:
    =COUNTIFS(C:C,"LF",(AF:AF),"")
    What I’m trying to do, but can’t figure out is how to use the COUNTIFS function and count the UNDUPLICATED number of analyses completed.
    Can you help?

    1. Hello Lorna,

      You can use the following array formula, please don't forget to press Ctrl + Shift + Enter to complete it:
      {=SUM((IF(FREQUENCY(MATCH(G2:G7497,G2:G7497,0),MATCH(G2:G7497,G2:G7497,0))>0,1,0))*(--(AF2:AF7498<>"")))}

      But I'd recommend adding a helper column and copying the class codes there according to your conditions, e.g. here is the formula for row 2:
      =if(AF2<>"", G2, "")
      Then copy this formula down to the other cells in the helper column and count using your first formula. This seems to be a quicker and more flexible approach.

      1. Svetlana - it WORKED! Many many thanks from California! Where do I send the Bailey's????

        1. Thank you, Lorna. A virtual bottle will suffice : )

  33. I'm working from a spreadsheet and pulling data from the spreadsheet into a table on a new worksheet. I need to countif the data from A2:A114 is greater than 12/31/2013 and less than 4/1/2014 to obtain a count for Q1. I need to do this for each Quarter and change the dates which is working fine.

    For example: =COUNTIF('Partnership Tracking '!$C$2:'Partnership Tracking '!$C$114,">12/31/2013")-COUNTIF('Partnership Tracking '!$C$2:'Partnership Tracking '!$C$114,">3/31/2014")

    Now I need to know of the data returned from the above formula which of those have Cleared using values in columns W2:w114 and the word "cleared". I tried this one and it is not yielding a realistic number.

    Getting error:
    =COUNTIF('Partnership Tracking '!$C$2:'Partnership Tracking '!$C$114,">12/31/2013")*COUNTIF('Partnership Tracking '!$C$2:'Partnership Tracking '!$C$114,"<4/1/2014")

    Is it possible for me to achieve what I need?

    Thanks

    Monique

    1. Hello Monique,

      If I understand the task right, the following formula will work a treat:
      =COUNTIFS('Partnership Tracking '!$C$2:'Partnership Tracking '!$C$114,">12/31/2013",'Partnership Tracking '!$C$2:'Partnership Tracking '!$C$114,">3/31/2014", 'Partnership Tracking '!$W$2:'Partnership Tracking '!$W$114,"cleared")

      If it doesn't, you can send us your sample workbook at support@ablebits.com and we will try to help.

  34. I have tried using the same multiple if's with a table that has multiple data validation lists. The user simply picks under the source column where the lead came from and then in the type column they would pick what type it came in as.

    My formula is =countif(Table1[Source],"Kijiji",Table1[Type],"phone") to find out what percentage of leads were sourced from kijiji by phone as opposed to kijiji by email or our website by phone.

    Not sure what I am doing wrong because it keeps throwing it out saying it is causing arguments.
    Any help would be appreciated.

    1. Hi Jason,

      You were almost there. It just should be COUNTIFS rather than COUNTIF because you count by 2 conditions:
      =COUNTIFS(Table1[Source],”Kijiji”,Table1[Type],”phone”)

  35. Hello,

    =COUNTIFS('Current Enlisted By Name'!$E:$E,LEFT(B6,4)&"*",'Current Enlisted By Name'!$D:$D,"WHQK"&"*")

    I need that formula above to capture these UICs only:

    WHQKA0,WHQKB0,WHQKC0,WHQKE0,WHQKT0,WHQLC0

    Please help

    1. Hello Rich,

      This can be done either with a helper column or VBA.

      If adding a helper column is acceptable, say column K and copy the following formula there, starting from row 2:
      =OR(D2="WHQKA0",D2="WHQKB0",D2="WHQKC0",D2="WHQKE0",D2="WHQKT0",D2="WHQLC0")

      Your main formula will be:
      =COUNTIFS('Current Enlisted By Name'!$E:$E,LEFT(B6,4)&"*",'Current Enlisted By Name'!$K:$K,TRUE)

  36. Hi,
    I'm creating a spread sheet to work with attendance numbers for an after school program. I'm using this formula for each grade.

    =COUNTIFS(DailyAtten!C:C,A6,DailyAtten!E:E,"1")

    I want to copy the formula across a spread sheet so that it will calculate daily attendance for each class. To do this, I need to be able to get the row to flow like this:

    =COUNTIFS(DailyAtten!C:C,A6,DailyAtten!E:E,"1")
    =COUNTIFS(DailyAtten!C:C,A6,DailyAtten!F:F,"1")
    =COUNTIFS(DailyAtten!C:C,A6,DailyAtten!G:G,"1")
    =COUNTIFS(DailyAtten!C:C,A6,DailyAtten!H:H,"1")
    =COUNTIFS(DailyAtten!C:C,A6,DailyAtten!I:I,"1")

    But instead, it copies like this:

    =COUNTIFS(DailyAtten!C:C,A6,DailyAtten!E:E,"1")
    =COUNTIFS(DailyAtten!D:D,B6,DailyAtten!F:F,"1")
    =COUNTIFS(DailyAtten!E:E,C6,DailyAtten!G:G,"1")
    =COUNTIFS(DailyAtten!F:F,D6,DailyAtten!H:H,"1")
    =COUNTIFS(DailyAtten!G:G,E6,DailyAtten!I:I,"1")

    Is there a way for me to set this up so that only the DailyAtten! value progresses when I continue the formula?

    Thank you!

  37. Hi,

    1. Hi Subbu,

      - Insert a pivot table (select your column and go to Insert > Tables > PivotTable).
      - Place the pivot table onto a new sheet.
      - Drag and drop your column from "Choose fields to add to report" to the Rows section
      - Drag and drop your column from "Choose fields to add to report" to the Values section.
      - Click on the column name in the Values section and select "Value field settings" from the drop-down menu.
      - Select "count" instead of "sum" and click OK.

      If you want to update information, right-click on the pivot table report and select "Refresh" from the context menu.

  38. hi Svetlana,
    now I'm working with Windows 7
    here are the data in A1:E6, now im using array to count them by each character:
    89 89 89 89 9
    35 35 35 35 47
    39 39 39 39 48
    356 356 356 356 46
    3589 3589 3589 3589 3459
    1 1 1 1 12

    {=SUM(LEN(A$1:E$6)-LEN(SUBSTITUTE(A$1:E$6;B9;"")))/LEN(B9)}
    and the reault will be:

    1 2
    5 6
    9 8
    14 9
    0 0
    17 3
    13 5
    4 4
    5 1
    1 7

    is it possibble to sort them from smallest to biggest instead in one formula? so the result will be..

    0 0
    1 2
    1 7
    4 4
    5 6
    5 1
    9 8
    13 5
    14 9
    17 3

    thank you for your help..

    1. Hello Raja,

      The value in cell B9 is missing. If you can send us the complete workbook with your data, we'll look into the issue. However, there is a very slim chance that your data can be sorted using a formula.

      1. Oke I will..working on it..thanks

  39. hi Mam,

    I sent you an email, hope you can help me with my problem.

    1. Hi Angelo,

      1. I am working on a spreadsheet with a basic countif formula thats working well for me. When I add a filter to the worksheet in column A and filter by one item (e.g Apple) the formula does not autmoatically updated. Please help.

  40. Hi, I am having a country, site and subject number column and visit 1 to visit 62 columns with the date information within an excel spread sheet. I would like to calculate
    - count of subjects per country per site per visit within the specific date range
    - count of subjects per country per visit within the specific date range

    As I am having a huge amount of data I would prefer to avoid the manual work which will take a lot of time to find out this information. Can you please help me?

    1. Hi!

      Please send us a sample of your data at support@ablebits.com and include the resulting report you want to get, and will try to help.

  41. Hi.

    I'm trying to count the number of times a specific reason code (27 codes in total) occurs within a specified date range. I was able to use the COUNTIFS statement to identify the date range, but I can't figure out how to add the second part of the equation to the formula - that of now counting how many times each of the 27 codes occurs within the date range. The formula I'm using is:
    =COUNTIFS($A$17:$A$50,">="&$R$30,$A$17:$A$50,"<"&$R$31). Any suggestions as to how I can add the next part of the statement?

    Thanks for your help!
    I

    1. Hello Jane,

      Just add one more Range/Criteria pair to your formula: =COUNTIFS($A$17:$A$50,">="&$R$30,$A$17:$A$50,"<"&$R$31, $B$17:$B$50,$R$32)
      Where $B$17:$B$50 – the cells that contain the reason code, and $R$32 is the cell with the code you want to count.

  42. pls av been trying to formulate a formula for my work and I need ur help. am dealing with different index nos and there various transactions whether credit or debit. I need a formula that can help me count de individual no of credit and debit for each index no and also sum the various credit and debit amount.

    1. Hello Linda,

      I am sorry, it is difficult to suggest something without seeing your data. If you can send a workbook with your sample data at support@ablebits.com, I will try to help.

  43. I found the answer for: COUNTIF(Sursa!$G:$G,"Answered")+COUNTIF(Sursa!$G:$G,"Blind Transfered")+COUNTIF(Sursa!$G:$G,"RONA")

    instead of it, the formula is:
    SUM(COUNTIF(Sursa!$G:$G,{"Answered","Blind Transfered","RONA"}))

    for those who will have this problem in the future.

    1. Great combination Kolegu. Thanks a lot, really helpful

  44. Hi,

    How can I count if criteria is in a list?
    For Example: instead of =COUNTIF(Sursa!$G:$G,"Answered")+COUNTIF(Sursa!$G:$G,"Blind Transfered")+COUNTIF(Sursa!$G:$G,"RONA")

    to have something as countif(Sursa!$G:$G,"Answered" or "Blind Transfered" or "RONA")
    Thank you.

  45. First Column 2nd column
    List =LST what is the formula of getting a shortcut e.g i type
    Cable List next column will automatic appear LST and so and so fort
    Wire Thanks awaiting your prompt response.

  46. OR

    A1 is 6:00 AM
    B1 is 14:00 PM

    A2 is 15:00 PM

    B2 =A2 (This should not appear in the range of A1-B1) it will leave blank

  47. Hi Svetlana,

    this is my problem

    A1 B1 C1
    6:00 - 14:00 14:00 - 20:00 20:00 - 6:00
    A2 = B2 = C2 =
    A3 = B3 = C3 =

    for example, i have a value in different excel sheet.
    if i enter 8:00 am there, it will be automatically appear in A2.
    B2 and C2 will be blank.
    but if i put the value 15:00 pm, it will be automatically appear in B2. A2 and C2 will be blank.

    Hope you can help me with this.. Thanks

  48. How do I use countif to meet the same criteria but across multiple ranges in multiple worksheets?

  49. I am trying to tally the number of calls by day-of-the-week each person has from a table that looks like this but for the entire year:

    JANUARY Sa Su Mo Tu We Th Fr
    James call
    John call call
    Mike call
    Jane call call

    FEBRUARY Sa Su Mo Tu We Th Fr
    James call call
    John call call
    Mike call
    Jane call call

    MARCH Sa Su Mo Tu We Th Fr
    James call
    John call call
    Mike call call
    Jane call

    I have a table at the top of the spreadsheet that shows the results and looks like this:

    Sa call Su call Mo call etc
    James ?? ?? ??
    John ?? ?? ??
    Mike ?? ?? ??
    Jane ?? ?? ??

    What formula do I use that references the names in the left column with the rows to give me the ?? tallies based on day of the week when they occur? Thanks.

  50. Hi,
