I tried to write a formula to count how often the value of a range of cells
falls between two numbers. for example in the chart below:

row value
1 25
2 27
3 36
4 37
5 42

I tried the formula =countif(a1:a5,and(>35,<40)) and my result was "0" when
it should be "2".

Can anyone help correct my formula?

thanks

There are a few ways to to this:
=SUMPRODUCT((A1:A5>35)*(A1:A5<40))

=COUNTIF(A1:A5,">35")-COUNTIF(A1:A5,">40")

HTH,

Ashish, you meant to say >40...

Ryan, since the condition is <40 you need to have the second condition as >=40

=COUNTIF(A1:A5,">35")-COUNTIF(A1:A5,">=40")

Glenn, if you are using Excel 2007 you can try the below

=COUNTIFS(A1:A5,">35",A1:A5,"<40")
