I understand that it does count blocks individually. Is there a way to specify the count area and have the software count each block and set it into a table all at once?

 

I have created a system that uses blocks for every type of item the company I work for sells. the count works fine and there are no issues other than having to count one block at a time.

Hi,

 

[F1] COUNT (and DATAEXTRACTION, but not for a specific area)

@kaige_naidooCYGKB What version of LT are you using?

If you are using LT2024 explore the COUNT command. See the link below

Hi Howard I found that the BCOUNT command works best and I am able to create a table from that. I am also able to export the table into excel or google sheets.

@kaige_naidooCYGKB You can create a table when using the count command in LT2024 as well
