Dynamic range in excel: How to remove Counta counting blank cells(made blank by ifferror formulas)

I have to plot a data in chart which I have made dynamic by using a named range using offset, counta(for required rows) in the chart area.

The problem with using counta is it counts the rows which has blank cells(made blank by iferror formula),which I do not want.Moreover I cannot remove those formulas 'coz when the data is there that has to be dynamically present in the chart.

OFFSET('ABC'!$T$2,1,0,COUNTA('ABC'!$T2:$T1000),4)

Here; let us say the values are there for 10 rows;but the formulas are till 15 so how do I stop counta from counting the 5 rows(which have been made blank by iferror).

To remove the blank cells from the count you can use the COUNTBLANK function of Excel.

Simply subtract the value of COUNTBLANK from the result of COUNTA

Example:

=COUNTA(yourRange)-COUNTBLANK(yourRange)
