COUNTA

[Karen]

I know that the function COUNTA counts non blank cells, but what does the "A"
stand for in the function?

Thank you, Karen

Active -- as in Count Active Cells

Thank you VERY much!

I would have guessed Count AlphaNumeric's.

They don't need to be cells.

=counta("a","b",3)

But it's just a guess what that A means.
