I use Excel 2007 and I'm trying to find code or a formula that would count the number of consecutive cells in a row from left to right until it there is 0, Below is an example of what I'm trying to do:

<TABLE style="WIDTH: 245pt; BORDER-COLLAPSE: collapse" border=0 cellSpacing=0 cellPadding=0 width=324><COLGROUP><COL style="WIDTH: 28pt" span=5 width=37><COL style="WIDTH: 22pt; mso-width-source: userset; mso-width-alt: 1024" width=29><COL style="WIDTH: 27pt; mso-width-source: userset; mso-width-alt: 1280" width=36><COL style="WIDTH: 28pt" span=2 width=37><TBODY><TR style="HEIGHT: 14.4pt" height=19><TD style="BORDER-BOTTOM: windowtext 0.5pt solid;

Hi, I am also looking for a very similar code or formula. I am trying to analyse Rainfall Data and want to count the successive days with rainfall that were above 5 (mm) per day. Rainfall data in one month might look like this:

0
30
5
1
0
16
0
0
40
7
17
19
2
2
0
11
0
0
21
1
29
2

I know the result should be "4" [as we have 30,5; 40,7; 7,17; 17,19], but I do not manage to put the appropriate formula for this calculation together... Hopefully someone can help me out with this one. Thanks!

Try...

=SUMPRODUCT(--(A2:A22>=5),--(A3:A23>=5))

Thanks Aladin, but this only counts how many cells have values above "5", not consecutive cells...
Click to expand...

It does look at pairs of consecutive cells whether they are both >= 5.

Your output spec 30,5; 40,7; 7,17; 17,19 appear to mean what the formula does. Note A2:A22 vs A3:A23.

Hello everyone,

I'm trying to do a similar thing. I would like to count the last number of consecutive cells containing the number "1". My data only has "1"s and blank cells.
