Count cells if greater than or equal to

This tutorial shows how to count cells that are greater than or equal to a specific value through the use of Excel formulas or VBA

Example: Count cells if greater than or equal to

Count cells if greater than or equal to

METHOD 1. Count cells if greater than or equal to a specific value by referencing to a cell

EXCEL

=COUNTIF(C8:C14,">="&C5)
This formula uses the Excel COUNTIF function to count the number of cells in range (C8:C14) that have a value greater than or equal to the value in cell C5.

METHOD 2. Count cells if greater than or equal to a specific value with the value entered directly into the formula

EXCEL

=COUNTIF(C8:C14,">=500")
This formula uses the Excel COUNTIF function to count the number of cells in range (C8:C14) that contain a value of greater than or equal to 500, which is directly entered into the formula.

METHOD 1. Count cells if greater than or equal to a specific value by referencing to a cell using VBA

VBA

Sub Count_cells_if_greater_than_or_equal_to()
'declare a variable
Dim ws As Worksheet
Set ws = Worksheets("Analysis")
'apply the formula to count the cells that have a value greater than or equal to the value in cell (C5)
ws.Range("E8") = Application.WorksheetFunction.CountIf(ws.Range("C8:C14"), ">=" & ws.Range("C5"))

End Sub

ADJUSTABLE PARAMETERS
Output Range: Select the output range by changing the cell reference ("E8") in the VBA code.
Range: Select the range from which you want to count cells that are greater than or equal to a specific value by changing the range reference ("C8:C14") in the VBA code.
Specific Value: Select the value that you want to count if a cell's value is greater than or equal to this value by changing the cell reference ("C5") in the VBA code.
Worksheet Selection: Select the worksheet which captures a range of cells from which you want to count the number of cells that contain a value greater than or equal to the specific value by changing the Analysis worksheet name in the VBA code. You can also change the name of this object variable, by changing the name 'ws' in the VBA code.

Sub Count_cells_if_greater_than_or_equal_to()
'declare a variable
Dim ws As Worksheet
Set ws = Worksheets("Analysis")
'apply the formula to count the cells that have a value greater than or equal to 500
ws.Range("E8") = Application.WorksheetFunction.CountIf(ws.Range("C8:C14"), ">=500")

End Sub

ADJUSTABLE PARAMETERS
Output Range: Select the output range by changing the cell reference ("E8") in the VBA code.
Range: Select the range from which you want to count cells that are greater than or equal to a specific value by changing the range reference ("C8:C14") in the VBA code.
Specific Value: Select the value that you want to count if a cell's value is greater than or equal to this value by changing the value of 500 in the VBA code.
Worksheet Selection: Select the worksheet which captures a range of cells from which you want to count the number of cells that contain a value greater than or equal to the specific value by changing the Analysis worksheet name in the VBA code. You can also change the name of this object variable, by changing the name 'ws' in the VBA code.

Explanation about the formula used to count cells if greater than or equal to a specific value

EXPLANATION

EXPLANATION

This tutorial shows and explains how to count cells that are greater than or equal to a specific value by using Excel formulas or VBA.
This tutorial provides two Excel methods that can be applied to count cells that are greater than or equal to a specific value in a selected range by using an Excel COUNTIF function. The first method reference to a cell that capture the value that we want to count if a cell contains a value greater than or equal to this, whilst the second method has the value (500) directly entered into the formula.
This tutorial provides two VBA methods that can be applied to count cells that are greater than or equal to a specific value in a selected range. The first method reference to a cell that capture the value that we want to count if a cell contains a value greater than or equal to this, whilst the second method has the value (500) directly entered into the VBA code.
FORMULA (value manually entered)
=COUNTIF(range, ">=value")
FORMULA (value sourced from cell reference)
=COUNTIF(range, ">="&value)
ARGUMENTS
range: The range of cells you want to count from.
value: The value that is used to determine which of the cells should be counted if the cells' value, from a specified range, is greater than or equal to this value.
