It might be an issue of selecting the correct range in the source sheet. When you start writing the COUNTIF function and click on "Reference Another sheet" to pick the right column, make sure you click on the column name. This will select the whole column. This should help with the issue.
I am having a similar problem. As you can see below I am using the formula you suggested but it is coming up with 0 when it should be showing the information you can see in the 2022 column. I am asking to formula to count all the times on my referenced master sheet that the station in the name@row is listed on there. Help, please?
First of all, is it possible that the value in your other sheet is spelled a little differently? For example, if there is no space between "Station" and "2" in your other sheet - Station2, then this wouldn't be an exact match and you'll get a return of 0.
Note: The COUNT function only counts cells with numbers, not cells with letters. The COUNTA function is used if the cells have letters.
This spreadsheet will help you count all of the products in your storage location or warehouse to ensure that your records reflect what you have on hand. There are several reasons that records can go astray over time. For example, stock adjustments might have mistakes, purchase orders could be placed in the wrong location, and items could break or be stolen.
Doing a physical inventory count is an essential part of ensuring the accuracy of your inventory system. The fact is inventory counts are just as important as buying and selling new products. You could run into major issues if your counts stray too far from reality over time. Some of these include being unable to fulfill a big order for an important customer or over-ordering new stock when you still have plenty left over.
Count sheets are also helpful because they can create a snapshot of your inventory levels for a particular date. This can be useful for later comparisons. For instance, you could compare how much stock you had left at the end of last quarter versus this quarter.
Depending on the size of your storage area, you can also create one inventory count sheet per section. You can divide a warehouse into aisles or lots and send specific people to count the items in those areas. This kind of division of labor can make the whole process much faster since you can count multiple areas of the warehouse simultaneously without the fear of double counting.
Once you finalize all values on the inventory count sheet, you can return to your master stock list and adjust your records according to the Counted Qty from the sheets. This will ensure that your records align with your actual inventory levels.
If you want to make this process even more efficient, create your count sheets in inFlow. The Recorded Qty can be pre-filled for you since inFlow tracks your current stock levels and calculates the differences automatically.

I really hope that this article will assist your work with Google Sheets and that COUNT and COUNTA functions will serve you well.
I have a sheet where each column represents a garment size. Each garment is a different price. I need a tally of populated cells but each cell populated is worth a certain value. I wish to calculate the total price based purely on the tally of populated cells.
How would I go about finding the count for customers that ordered a sample order then purchased a normal order after said sample order. I have a column of customer IDs which are unique to each customer, and another column of order type; this displays if their order was a "Sample" or "Normal".
Is there a way to use COUNTA to count the number of cells that are not empty, but to count merged cells as if they are not merged? So if I have merged 3 cells and assigned a single value in the resultant merged cell, COUNTA would still count this as 3 cells in which text was found?
Thanx
How do I count the number of times all the numbers show up in the entire sheet? I have student ID numbers that are on the sheet based on a day. I have eight days of data so a student's name may be on there multiple days. How do I count the number of times a student's ID# is on the sheet? Each day has 300+ ID#s and there is 8 columns worth of days.
If I understand your task correctly, the COUNTIF function will help you. It is designed to count the occurrence of a specific value in the range. You will learn more about the function in this blog post.
We are trying to determine the best way to split our students into two groups, by counting the first letter of their last name in each of the homerooms and then seeing which has more a-k, a-l, a-m so we have an even amount on the alternating days they will come. All the students are in one workbook spread out by grade level on ten sheets so I would need to count the first letter of the last name on all sheets. I need two counts. One with all students and then one that removes the students who are only virtual (I have a separate column with this info). I'm working in Google sheets. Thank you!
I am hoping to get a count from a column. I want to be able to get a count of each different unit code in a column. So, not an overall count of the whole column but a count of each individual code in that column. I hope my question makes sense.
The quickest and simplest way would be to create a pivot table from the desired range: with the values you want to count as Rows and the COUNTA function as Values in it. If you're not familiar with pivot tables, feel free to read this blog post.

At this point, given your use case, you don't need to use a batch macro to loop through each one, but you may do if you want to proceed with separate loads for each sheet. However, given your use case is to simply count the records on each sheet, you can then proceed directly to the next tool which loads the data in:
We spoke with five experts for this piece, and they all agreed that thread counts are an important indicator of quality sheets, but that you should be suspicious of numbers that are too high or too low. Manufacturers calculate thread count by adding up the vertical warp and horizontal weft yarns in a square inch of fabric. This is what the weave looks like for percale sheets (made with a plain weave) and sateen sheets (made with a satin weave):
Preethi Gopinath, director of the Textiles MFA program at Parsons and one of the writers of our cotton sheets guide, and Shannon Maher, chairperson and assistant professor of the Home Products Development department at the Fashion Institute of Technology, both weighed in on the best thread counts for each weave:
Higher-thread-count sheets are made with finer (thinner) yarns. The more yarns that fit into a square inch, the smoother, denser, and more durable the fabric. Fine yarn is also more expensive to produce, thus resulting in pricier sheets (and why densely woven sateen is more expensive than percale). Cheap sheets are made with thicker yarns, resulting in lower thread counts and a rougher feel.
I am trying to get a count of worksheets in the active workbook. When I run Application.Sheets.Count the value I get is one off from what I expected I should be getting 76 and I get 75. In the project explorer I found a strange sheet labeled ThisWorkbook (See Sheet 52 in the image below). I would really like to understand this behavior as it has an impact on my later work. Any insight would be greatly appreciated.
The above image is now a more complete picture of what I'm seeing. Note that ThisWorkbook is at the bottom of the Project Explorer window. For some reason however, sheet 52 is also called ThisWorkbook.
This is contextually important because this value is later used to increment through all created sheets, the number of which will change over time. Since Sheet52 increments the sheet count but not the number of sheets, I'm coming up short by one. I could conceivably introduce a workaround by just adding one, then checking to ensure that the sheet value is not equal to 52 on each iteration of the loop but in addition to being an inelegant approach this may also cause issues in the future if the anomaly crops up again. I would really like to understand this behavior. I haven't found anything in the documentation to indicate that this sheet needs to be created and I haven't seen a ThisWorkbook sheet being created before like the case of Sheet52 nor can I fathom any reason why it would need to be created. I defer to the collective wisdom of the community.
The suggestion that this question is a duplicate emanates from my curiosity as to what was happening to generate Sheet52. The question however, pertains to getting the wrong sheet count, which is not addressed in that post. This information was instructive in some regards and did ultimately get me closer to the answer.
