View 9 RepliesI have a key-word, and I need to search a 90,000 words in a range where i should find several words that have 2, 3 or 4 letters of the first letter of the key-word, then find several words that have 2, 3 or 4 letters of the second letter of the key-word,
I have a question with picking out certain word in the column. I am trying to write a formula that would allow me to pick out names that has first 3 alphabetical letters from the columns. The column has a lot of different names, but the one that I would want my automation to pick out is similar to this, C, AR, AA-103, BG-2056, HJE-1100, etc. However, in the same column, I have other words like elevtar, hsvte, lvnrm, etc. that I do not want my formula to pick out.
View 9 Replies View RelatedI have tried Sumproduct and Countif and can not get a proper count of rows that contain specific words in multiple columns. I have attached an example spreadsheet where I am looking for a result of 7 rows that contain 1 to 4 specific words within phrases. The example looks for the words: "virus", "spyware", "malware" & "adaware", and ignores any other words like "aware" or "ware".
View 7 Replies View RelatedI have a sheet that has various data in the range of cells from B1 to Q80.
In these cells are various letters, numbers, etc. In some cells, the letter "L" appears not at all, sometimes once, sometimes multiple times.
I need a formula (or another method), that counts the number of times "L" appears in the range of B1 to Q80 (and not outside this range). Unfortunately, COUNTIF wont do the trick since sometimes in a single cell, "L" appears multiple times and would get counted only once.
I prefer a formula, because I have to do the same thing for the letters D, H, O, M, C, U, K.... I figure I could just copy/paste and modify slightly for each letter I'm trying to count the instances of. Unless of course there's an easier method.
I have a spreadsheet filled with either "B" or "S" in cells. Its 500 rows long (starts from row 2) and its 839 columns wide, but the cells begin to be filled with B and S after column 11. I would like to count all B's and all S's in each column, and add them....it works for B;s as it counts them up and spits the result in row 503, just as it is supposed to. But the counter for S, does not work.

View 3 Replies View RelatedI am trying to count the number of certain letters in a given cell. I figured out the formula when there is not a repeat of a targeted letter. For example, if multiple C's appear in cell A1 I will only get a value of 1 and not the exact number.
Here is my formula.
=COUNTIF(F12:Q12, "*C*")+COUNTIF(F12:Q12, "*P*")+COUNTIF(F12:Q12, "*E*")+COUNTIF(F12:Q12, "*L*")+COUNTIF(F12:Q12, "*O*")
ii there a function that will count the number of different letters within a cell.
Example: If in cell A1 is LIVERPOOL then in cell B1 I want the number 7.
Is it possible to assign values to letters (eg. a=1, b=2, c=3... z=26) and then count the total sum of those letters in a cell
Example
A1= car
car is c=3 + a=1 + r=18 which would make the total to be shown in A2 3+1+18=22
With this code i would like to create a subtotal of all letters per row and a batch total of the column with subtotal.
I have 1 or 2 maybe 3 words in a cell (difference words). I need to count how many of the same words are in the cell and place the number of words another cell I have included a file the same word may appear in other cells in same column which has to be counted into the same cell

So basically want it to count WO & WL
=COUNTIF(M3:JS3,"wo")
I am trying to use Excel to do my manpower allocation and planning. So I have
a column of employees and a row of months. I then put in the project name
that each is working on in a given month.
then at the bottom, I just sum the number of people working on a particular
project in a month and do a simple calculation between the number of
available people and the number who are allocated. This works beautifully IF
each person only works on one project in a month. As we know, this is an
unreleastic assumption!
What I would like is for me to put in multiple project names in a cell and
for the 2nd table to be smart - i.e. if I put in Project A & B for John, then
it should count John as 0.5 for each A & B not 1 for each A&B. Similarly if
John is working on 3 projects, then it should count only 0.33 for each
project John is working on.
I have a problem to count some words in a column: in fact, in the cell they can write several words and my objective is to count in this column how many times there is the word "info" but as they can write several words in the same cell,(for example: speciality, info, degree) I can t really count how many times the word info is written in the column.
View 13 Replies View RelatedI am trying search & count 2 or more words within a cell using a worksheet function. See below example:
The texts are in A1 (only)
Entered by John at 02:19 PM on 02/13/2007
Entered by Smith at 02:20 PM on 02/13/2007
Entered by John at 02:30 PM on 02/13/2007
Entered by John at 02:21 PM on 02/12/2007
Entered by John at 02:22 PM on 02/11/2007
The words I am looking for are "John" and "02/13/2007" and the count should be 2. I bolded what should be counted.
I would like to count the words separated by a "-"
Right now I have this below
=LEN(TRIM(J1448))-LEN(SUBSTITUTE(J1448,"-",""))+1
But what I would like is for the formula to count the WORDS and Numbers in a cell that are separated by a
"-"
OERT-JTF-JUA-JTF-ASG1-JMF-JMF-JTF
so the answer would be 8
I have a table with some reapeated words in, I wondered if anyone had any methods of counting words and displaying the total in number format. for example if I had in cell A1-Hello and A2-Hello and A3-Bye how can I get Hello = 2 and Bye =1

i want to convert all the words in column d by get one word from the column d and skip repeated
example word "I" mentioned in d2 and d3 so i get "I" in cell b2 then count it it mentioned two times in column D
I am looking for code to look at a cell and see if it contains more than one word. So if Cell A has one word Cell B = ? If Cell A has two or more words Cell B= something else. I assume that searching for spaces would be best way to accomplish this

I want to count the nr of words in cell without counting the repeated words.
For example, in "this is a ball and that is a square", the total nr of words is 9, and the total nr of non-repeated words is 7, because "is" and "a" are repeated twice, and I just want to count it once.
In my workbook, I want to count how many duplicate words in 2 ranges.
Eg:
Col A are more than 10,000 words and Col B are more than 10,000 words.
I want to count total duplicate words in these 2 ranges.
Usually it's to count for one unique word in a cell. But what if I have 2 or more unique word in a cell and need to be counted for?
for example

I need a a formula that will count the number of times a word or phrase appears in a column of cells and assign a number
For example....
Big Red Ford Truck = 1
Ford Truck = 3
Red Ford Truck = 2
After i get the formula, I can sort by "greater than 2"
I am trying to count words in seperate rows,columns in a spreadsheet. I have tried to use the formula that was suggested in one of the formula pages but I did not get the correct answer. I tried to do just like the information said with a1:a5. I did get 5 as an answer but when I deleted one of the words it still said there were 5 words.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI'm working on a project and need some assistance. Using Excel 2007, how do I add up the total of the word "apples" to a cell.
Example: If Cell A1,A10,A25,A30 all have the word apple entered, how do I add them up in lets say cell B10.
Also, I need to do it where I can enter multiple words in 1 cell and have it organized according to how many times the word is used.
I would like to modify the below macro so it only counts a word once even if it appears more than once in a row. The reason I want to do this is so I can get a snapshot of the data without certain terms being over-represented.
For example, in the attached example the word 'Microsoft' appears 5 times in row 4 but I only want this to be counted once. In the whole data set Microsoft appears 20 times but only in 7 of the 20 rows so I would like the count to be 7.
The example is set out as follows: In column B there is a description field which in practice will contain consumer complaints and inquiries. To keep the data anonymous the description is filled out with random words and all other columns are blank. The output of Andy Pope's unique word counting macro appears in I:J.
I have a column of address data that looks like
1924 ogden place blvd west unrulu
982 n aoto st apt #1234 easrlr
...
and I'd like to use a couple of formulas in the two columns to the right of this data
1st column:a formula to obtain the number of words in a cell
2nd column:a formula to extract the last n words from a cell (ex. the last 2 words)
so that the columns would have as their results
6 west unrulu
7 #1234 easrlr
Is there a way of counting how many rows have cells containing a specific word. Some rows will have multiple cells with the word in and some will have none. I only want a count of the number of rows and not the number of times the word appears. How can i acheive this with VBA?
View 3 Replies View RelatedI am making a content database and need to count the number of words in each cell...
I know you can count them with
=IF(LEN(TRIM(A2))=0,0,LEN(TRIM(A2))-LEN(SUBSTITUTE(A2,” “,””))+1)
but the the cells have line breaks so this formula won't work
I've understood that since there is a space before the new line, the formula will not recognise the space and therefore not recognise a new word.
