Things to Remember About Row Count in Excel

  • If you click on the column heading for counting the rows, it will give you the count which contains data.
  • If you pass a range of cells, it will return you the number of cells that you have selected.
  • If the column contains only the data only in one cell, the status bar won’t show you anything. That is, the status bar stays blank.
  • If the data are given in the table form, then for counting the rows, you can pass the table range within the ROWS function.
  • You also can do the setting of the message appearing in the status bar. Do a right-click on the status bar and click the item you want to see or remove.
