It is the best practice to extend the formula from a cell to the end of the range with the ‘Formulas and number formats' in the Paste Special dialog box.Ĭopy (Excel shortcut Ctrl+C) the cell F2 with formula ➪ Then makes a selection downward till to the end of the range with Shift+ Down arrow (⬇) ➪ After that either press Alt+E+S+ R (sequentially press Alt, E, S, R) or press Alt+Ctrl+V+ R ( Alt+Ctrl+V, then press R) which will select the ‘ Formulas and number formats‘ option in the ‘ Paste Special’ dialog box ➪ Click OK or press Enter to accept the formula. ■ Extend the Formula Downward till the End of the Range: ■ Note: We had detail discussed on Cell Reference in a separate tutorial, suggested you read this tutorial: 03 Types of Excel Cell Reference: Relative, Absolute & Mixedįinally, press Enter to apply the formula in cell F2 and get the count value 1 as a result. Now the criteria_range1 seems to be $A$2:A2. Simply select the starting cell reference of the criteria_range1 and press the F4 Key once which will convert the cell reference from the relative cell reference to the absolute cell reference. Place a comma (,) to move to the next argument.Īgain select cell A2 as criteria1, the second argument of COUNTIFS function. ) from the keyboard, so Excel converts the cell reference into a range and the range starts from the same cell (or the same point) and it seems to be A2:A2. Select the cell A2 as criteria_range1, the first argument of the COUNTIFS function. ■ Note: the upper or lower case does not matter in syntax, Excel by default considers it in upper case.Īs a result, the COUNTIFS syntax appears with an open parenthesis. Place an equality sign (=) in cell F2 and type ‘ count…’, select COUNTIFS from the below suggestion list by the Down Arrow key ( ⬇) and then press the ‘ Tab’ key. ■ Note: Instead of the COUNTIFS function, we can also apply the COUNTIF function. ⇒ We can easily remove duplicates in Excel dataset without disturbing unique data. ⇒ We have got a chance to recheck the duplicate data. ⇒ we can easily find and highlight duplicates in Excel dataset.
