RE: Countif

Hi Lucy

countif is a function that totals matching items in a range. The formula is

=countif(range,criteria)

for example

=countif(A1:A5,"Paris")

would return 3 from the following list (assuming it were stored in cells A1 to A5)

London
Paris
Rome
Paris
Paris

I hope this helps - do let us know if you have any further questions.

Kind regards,
Andrew

Excel tip:

The dual nature of toolbar buttons

Many toolbar buttons are dual purpose, though the two purposes are often linked in some way. For example, Align Left aligns a cell's contents to the left of the cell. However, hold down Shift and press the Align Left button: Excel aligns the cell contents to the right.
You may respond: So what? Well, you can reduce the number of buttons on your toolbar to make your screen less cluttered and allow more room for, perhaps, some of your own commands. After all, what's the point of an Align Right button when Shift+Align Left does the same thing?
