I asked the Bing chatbot and got this answer:
One of the best database functions to use when calculating the total number of people from a certain column in Excel is the DCOUNT function. This function counts the number of cells that contain numbers within a list or database that match a given set of conditions. You can use this function by specifying the database range, field, and criteria range as arguments in the formula. For example: =DCOUNT(database, field, criteria).
