With your 31 cells in A1:A31, this formula should do what you want:
=COUNTIF(A1:A31,"F")+COUNT

Browse All TopicsI’m trying to create a working attendance table on a spreadsheet (ms excel 97/2000).
--------------------------
F: 1 day
H: 0.5 day
A: 0 day
S: 0 day
F: full day, H: half day, A: Absence, S: Sick
One table represent a worker attendance that have 31 cells which means 31 days. So if I enter F in a cell and it will give 1 day value, H will give 0.5 day, A and S will give 0 day value. Then, there will be a cell to show total of working days for a worker.
--------------------------
Can someone show how to solve the above problem?
Thanks.
