Hi Lisa, and Linda,
in the Excel Help example, =COUNT(A1:A7, 2) means that you want to count 
how many numbers are in the cells of array A1:A7, plus the number 2 which 
is the second argument. Array A1:A7, in the example given, contains 3 
numbers, in cells A2, A4 and A5 (check that =COUNT(A1:A7) is given as 3 in 
the same example). Plus the number 2, you get 4 numbers.
