    Counta function stands for 'count anything', with Counta you can count both string and numeric values

    A in countA probably stands for alphanumeric

    If you have a column which has data in certain cells but other cells are 'empty', however they still contain a formula which has returned no value, Excel will still count this as a cell using the COUNTA function. To fix this, do COUNTA - COUNTBLANK and it will only include the cells which actually have visible text rather than all cells which may not be returning values as well.

    Thanks, I had forgotten about the COUNTA function. Its a real time saver. Also not sure if you covered this but COUNTA only counts something, and leaves blanks out of the count, which is often something we find useful.

      Do conditional formating, new rule, use a formula to determine and paste the same rule in it should work. remember this only works if this rule returns true, so if it doesn't just place it within an if function =if("your rule">=0,"true","false"). I think that should help
