COUNTIFS Function not adding multiple results
Posted on 2013-01-07
I am trying to use the COUNTIFS to state multiple criteria within a range to count. Can someone look at the attached example and tell me what might be wrong with my formula> I assume that
=COUNTIFS(J6:AM6,"I*", J6:AM6,"P*")
is going to count all cells in a range begining with I or P.
Additionally, can the Count functions be used to determine what does not meet a criteria such as... count everything in range J6:AM6 except "I*" and "P*"
Thanks,
MC

Countifs will count all records that fulfill BOTH conditions. To achieve what you need, try this:
=COUNTIF(J6:AM6,"I*")+COUN
=COUNTIF(J6:AM6,"I*")+COUN
Thank you. The help file is missing that statement.
Can you look at my second question..I edited it most likely as you were answering.

For this one, you'd probably need to use countifs.
Try this:
=COUNTIFS(J6:AM6,"<>I*", J6:AM6,"<>P*")
What it's doing is counting all the records where it doesn't start with I and it doesn't start with P. The rule is that Countifs uses AND, so if you want OR, you need to add (like above).

To count all that begins with i* or p*
To count all that does not begin with i* or p*
=COUNTIF(J6:AM6,"i*")+COUNTIF(J6:AM6,"P*")
To count all that does not begin with i* or p*
=COUNTIFS(J6:AM6,"<>i*",J6:AM6,"<>P*")
