YAPTQ: Mixed data types in custom groups (Excel 2003)

D

derevin

Hello,

I'm trying to get the following accomplished in Excel 2003:
I have a column in a table that keeps track of how late a form was
turned in. It can have an integer (for the number of days it was late)
or one of several text strings ("On time," "Cannot determine," "Outside
report dates.")

I need to be able to generate the totals for:
On time or within 7 days late,
8-15 days,
More than 15 days
Cannot determine
Outside report dates

It seems like it should be a straightforward thing, where one can
specify a range of numbers, or a list of values, but I haven't been
able to find a way to get Excel to do this.

I would really appreciate a procedure for how to get this accomplished,
or a pointer at a post / website which describes a similar procedure.
Many thanks in advance.

-Alex
