Excel - Using COUNTIF/COUNTIFS across multiple sheets/same column

Question

I am trying to \"COUNT\" the number of a certain object in column I (in this instance) across multiple sheets. That value in column I is the result of a formula (if it matte

Answer 1

My first post... UDF I managed quickly to compile. Usage: Select 3D range as normal and enclose is into quotation marks like below...

=CountIf3D("'StartSheet:EndSheet'!G16:G878";"Criteria")

Advisably sheets to be adjacent to avoid unanticipated results.

Public Function CountIf3D(SheetstoCount As String, CriteriaToUse As Variant)

     Dim sStarSheet As String, sEndSheet As String, sAddress As String
     Dim lColonPos As Long, lExclaPos As Long, cnt As Long

    lColonPos = InStr(SheetstoCount, ":") 'Finding ':' separating sheets
    lExclaPos = InStr(SheetstoCount, "!") 'Finding '!' separating address from the sheets

    sStarSheet = Mid(SheetstoCount, 2, lColonPos - 2) 'Getting first sheet's name
    sEndSheet = Mid(SheetstoCount, lColonPos + 1, lExclaPos - lColonPos - 2) 'Getting last sheet's name

    sAddress = Mid(SheetstoCount, lExclaPos + 1, Len(SheetstoCount) - lExclaPos) 'Getting address

        cnt = 0
   For i = Sheets(sStarSheet).Index To Sheets(sEndSheet).Index
        cnt = cnt + Application.CountIf(Sheets(i).Range(sAddress), CriteriaToUse)
   Next

   CountIf3D = cnt

End Function
