I have columns of data comprosing of dates, "NA", and blanks. How do I count
only the dates and not the "NA"s and blanks? I pretty sure it involves
"counta" but this counts the "NA"s also.
Thought I saw something close to what I want but can't remember what
timeframe I saw it here in this forum.
Appreciate anyone's assistance.

Try something like this:
=COUNT(A1:F100)
COUNT will count numbers only. Dates are numbers.
