COUNTIF when CONTAINS a date

I am trying to create 2 different formulas. One for if the column has a date (any date) entered, I want it to add up only the cells with dates. The other formula will be if that same column has any cells with the word "FIRM".

=COUNTIF([IRB SUBJECT REMOVAL DATE]13:[IRB SUBJECT REMOVAL DATE]103 = DATE)

=COUNTIF([IRB SUBJECT REMOVAL DATE]13:[IRB SUBJECT REMOVAL DATE]103 = "FIRM")

I am clearly doing something wrong, as the formulas are not working. Any help would be appreciated.

This formula will count the number of rows in the date type column IRB SUBJECT REMOVAL DATE where the value in that column is a date.

=COUNTIFS([IRB SUBJECT REMOVAL DATE]:[IRB SUBJECT REMOVAL DATE], ISDATE(@cell))

To count just rows 13 to 103 you can use this:

=COUNTIFS([IRB SUBJECT REMOVAL DATE]13:[IRB SUBJECT REMOVAL DATE]103, ISDATE(@cell))

I have the formula for "FIRM" working now, I noticed I was missing a comma before the equals sign.

However, I still cannot figure out the date formula.

Hi Cheryl

It sounds like you have one column with a combination of Dates and Text. Is this a Date column type or a Text column type?

It is a date column, but is not restricted to dates only.
