  • Learn how to use COUNTIF and COUNTIFS to count the number of cells that meet a criterion or multiple conditions; for example, to count the number of times a particular city appears in a customer list.
    In this video, I run through the following:
    1) Count how many times a certain string or number appear in a list
    2) Count how many times multiple items appear in a list
    3) Count how many items are greater than or less than a certain value
    4) Count how many items are between certain values
    5) Count how many items do not match certain values
    6) Count how many items begin or end with certain characters
    7) Count how many items match certain conditions across multiple columns
    Lastly, I cover how to use Excel for free on the web. Excel on the web supports the COUNTIF and COUNTIFS functions.
    Here's the sheet I used if you want to follow along:

    I really really hope Microsoft was paying you extra for these videos bc I know a lot more people are using excel bc of you. Everyone in my office watches your videos from old to young either to brush up or to learn something new. As always, thank you for your videos Kevin and not just for Microsoft products but all the programs/system you teach us how to use (I literally learned how to edit videos from your other videos too)

    Thank you - I support multiple programs, and have a spreadsheet for the personnel I'm responsible for with their program & location noted. But couldn't figure out how to set up running tallies of different data points for the inevitable "need the info yesterday" data calls without getting a !SPILL error.
    I'd figured out how to use COUNTIF, but not how to combine multiple programs or locations without having multiple queries then SUM those cells. Using your walkthrough, I just set up 4 different COUNTIFS that have info I am often asked for, so I can now respond to "Need NOW" emails as fast as I can pull up the spreadsheet.
    You've saved me a lot of time & stress, thank you.

  • @nbjamspice
    @nbjamspice Před 4 lety +2

    This awesome. I really loved the "wild card" tutorial on how to count "start with" and "end with". I will be using this feature a lot. My biggest issue is how to copy the formula and paste to multiple columns without changing the formula. I always have to do redo the formula for each column. I'm teaching myself how to do metrics and I work with a company that have 32 groups and always have to show results for each month or for multiple criteria.

    • @davenicholas5637

      After you copy the formula, hit the "ESC" key, then paste the formula in another cell.

    Wow thanks bro, youve literally saved me hours of work. Its not that I didn't know the formula, but I was underperforming it. I didn't know that the "range" could deal with multiple sets of data at once. I was using this function for each row for thousands of samples instead of using the "range" to combine everything and calculate a full table of data in one cell....not sure if you get me, lol but thanks this helped

    nice job. this really helped with my spreadsheet for work. i had 2 sheets that didn't balance...i suspected the 300's were the difference...actual error was 299.20 . used the countif to work out one sheet had 41 on, other had 42. not only was this quicker , it was far more accurate than if i'd done it manually. very useful trick as i often get this type of issue. ( having found the big diff, i then zero'd in on the smaller diff of 0.80 soon anyway ! :) )
