MS Office Forum / Excel / New Users / June 2007counting empty cells in a column.
Office Excel 2007 I have a file with two sheets Addresses and Summary. In a cell on the Summary sheet, I want to count the number of blank cells in Column B on the Addresses sheet that contains a Heading row. I can easily count the number of occurences of the word Westridge in Column E with this: =COUNTIF(Addresses!E2:E7061,"Westridge") =COUNTIF(Addresses!B2:B7061," ") I can't figure how to count the blank cells. Thanks. Do you want to count how many times column B has a blank/empty cell and column E of the same row has Westridge? =SUMPRODUCT(--(Addresses!B2:B7061=""),--(Addresses!E2:E7061="Westridge")) If you just want to count blank/empty cells: =COUNTBLANK(Addresses!B2:B7061) Biff > Office Excel 2007 > [quoted text clipped - 11 lines] > > Thanks. Thanks Biff, Your first answer provided an answer to a question that I hadn't thought of, but it was great.

The former means no cell contents whatsoever. The latter means the cell evaluates as text to the zero length string "". For the former, use =-SUMPRODUCT(-ISBLANK(range)) for the latter, use =COUNTIF(range,"") or =COUNTBLANK(range)
