The Excel Database functions work with an Excel Database. This typically
takes the form of a large table of Data, where each row in the table stores an
individual record. Each column in the Worksheet table stores a different field

Count, etc., and additionally use criteria arguments, that allow you to perform
the calculation only for a specified subset of the records in your Database.
Other records in the Database are ignored.
