countif

Nabil Hayek

Hi,

I would like to count the number of ">3 hours saved" using the countif function. However, it is not working.

I am writing the formula as follows: =countif(range, ">3 hours saved")

the same issue with "<1 hour saved". Apparently adding the < or > signs is affecting the formula.

Any suggestions please? I should mention I tried adding { } or [ ] around "[>3 hours saved]" still did not work.

Thank you in advance

Try doing it with a helper column. Such as this:

1st formula in the [3 hours saved] column:

=IF(CONTAINS(">3 hours saved", [Primary Column]@row), "Yes", "No")

2nd formula in the [3 Hours Saved Count] column:

=COUNTIF([3 hours saved]:[3 hours saved], "Yes")

You can hide the helper column if needed.

Thank you for your help and idea Matt

I just replaced the signs with less and more than this time.

Have a good day
