I have a process that needs to enter a formula into a cell
Code:
Range("Table_RowCount").Formula = "=COUNTIF(D5:D4999," > ")"
I'm not sure why but when this executes it returns 'TRUE' as text in the cell rather than the formula.

Can anyone advise as to whats going on here as I've not had a problem with entering formulas into cells before.


TIA

Is there a shortcut key for strikethrough?
Ctrl+S is used for Save. Ctrl+5 is used for Strikethrough. Why Ctrl+5? When you use hashmarks to count |||| is 4, strike through to mean 5.
Hi - You need to double up the quotes:

Range("Table_RowCount").Formula = "=COUNTIF(D5:D4999,"">"")"
