---|---|
criteria_range1 | The first selected range of cells to apply the criteria1 to. It is a required argument. |
criteria1 | The first condition that must be met. It is applied to the criteria_range1 and used to determine the cells in the criteria_range1 to count. It can be a value entered manually or included into the cell you make reference to. It is a required argument. |
criteria_range2, criteria2 | Additional ranges of cells and their corresponding criteria. These arguments are optional. You can add up to 127 ranges and corresponding criteria. |
