Counting cells with a value in them

C

We are running an "If" equation on a column to determine if an event i
taking too long to do. The resulting equation will yield an "X" if i
is taking to long and a " " if not. I would like to have an equatio
calculate the number of "X" in the column.

Any ideas?

You can count cells that contain a value that you specify this way:

Assume that cells A1:A7 are either blank or contain an "x"; in an
cell outside of the range A1:A7 type the following formula:

=COUNTIF(A1:A7,"x")

The resulting number will be the count of cells that contain the "x" i
