    Count number of dates in a column that are less than 31/9/17 including blank cells

    Hi

    I was expecting that this formula =COUNTIFS($S$3:$S$500,"<"& D$4) would include the count of blank cells in the result, but it doesn't appear to.

    I assumed that a blank cell would be a value of less than 31/9/18

    Column S = list of dates
    Cell D4 is the date that the I want to count the entries in column S if they are less than this

    Any advice would be great thanks

    If blanks are not counting, try this:

    =COUNTIF($S$3:$S$500,"<"& D$4)+COUNTIF($S$3:$S$500,"")
