In pod-- sorry --netcast :-D episode 177, it was mentioned that COUNTA could count anything but blank. But what wasn't mentioned was that there's a function called COUNTBLANK which obviously counts the number of blank cells. Say if I enter =countblank(01:07) in O8, it returns 7. If I then enter a 5 into O4, COUNTBLANK will return 6 instead. See below

Sorry for those who think this is RAND, I was just watching old eps today and I thought it could be noted.

Links? Where??
If Excel says you have links but you can't find them, go to Formulas, Name Manager. Look for old links to dead workbooks & delete.
