I am trying to use the countif function by rows and it is not calculationg
correctly. I try to drag the formula down and it just repeats the same value
as the origin cell. Is there some type of malfunction with tis function?

It would help immensely if you had posted your formula for us to evaluate.
Without it, my best guess would be that your formula currently looks
something like:
=COUNTIF($1:$1,"My value")

when it should be:
=COUNTIF(1:1,"My value")

Hi,

why don't you try locking the range with $ signs. Or perhaps you could send
a sample so I could take a look at what you want to do.

Have you got calculation mode set to manual instead of automatic?
But otherwise, tell us the formula and we can see what's wrong.

here is my formula. It did not have the absolute value in it.
=COUNTIFS(C24:R24,">=1.0")

THANK YOU! I had no idea that muy calculation was onmanual. I have never
had that problem before but it was the issue.

Thank you again!

Glad it did the trick.

One way that manual can be set is if the first workbook you open in an Excel
session is one which has been saved in manual. Other workbooks opened in
the same session will then be treated as manual.
