Question on FormCalc

Question

Not sure what functionality I need to be using but here is what I am looking to accomplish. I need to know how to count the number of rows in a table that are not  null. I have a table with data but what I need to know is how many rows  are filled out. In other words, if 5 rows out of 20 are filled out, I  need my form to tell me that 5 rows are filled in. The specific data in  the table is irrelevant for this calculation. Furthermore, I do not need the formula to validate the all columns in the row, just 1 column filled out is fine.
I tried the following formula but this is literally counting each row as  1 without looking for data. If the row is blank, I need the formula to  skip that (or count it as 0). As mentioned, I can also pinpoint a specific cell if  needed.
Count("Page2.Table1.Row1", "Page2.Table1.Row2")

I woudl do this using Javascript and not FormCalc. You will need to loop through each of the rows and test a field to see if it is populated.
You can use the RowName.instanceManager.count to get the number of Rows in your table. Then you can use that to control a For loop to lok at each row.
Lets assume your Row is called Row and the field you want to test is called Name. Each field will have a uniques name as Row[instanceMumber].Name
So your code woudl be something like this:
var NoOfRows = 0;
for (i=0;i<Row.instanceManager.count;i++){
   if (xfa.resolveNode("Row[" + i + "]").Name.rawValue != null){
     NoOfRows = NoOfRows + 1;
When this code is run it the NoOfRows variable will contain the number of rows that have a value in it.
Hope that helps
