Jan 5, 2007Lets say there is a string: " andy,andy,tom,amy,andy" and I would like to search the word "andy". The function would return 3.
How could I implement this using VBA?

Count Word Occurrences But Excluding Keywords?
Feb 13, 2014I have a list of courses that are run each month, I have a formula that counts the occurrences of these words to show how many times each course is run per month.
However, there are 'other' courses that will be run adhoc which I want to count the occurrences of. It basically needs to count if there is text there but exclude the normal courses which are run.
I have attached a spread sheet as an example, the list of the normal courses are on the right. I've highlighted in yellow where I need the formula.
Returning Row Numbers Where One Word Contained In Text String - Multiple Occurrences
Oct 30, 2013I am trying to identify the row(s) where a match occurs when there can be multiple occurrences of the match.
A
B
C
1
john brown
Brown
True
2
Cathy Smith
3
Brown excavating company
4
XYZ Corp
5
Brown Advisors Inc.
The first test I ran in cell C1 with the information above was to determine if "Brown" was located in the range of A1:A5 using formula:
=IF(ISNUMBER(MATCH("*"&B1&"*",A1:A5,0))=TRUE,"True","False")
In the case of the word "Brown" it occurs in the range of A1:A5 three times, so the result of the above formula would be "True"
Now what I would like to do is return the locations, in this case the row number(s), where the word brown is contained range of A1:A5 because in the case of the word Brown, it occurs three separate times in the range of A1:A5. I would like the resulting value of the formula in this case to be "1, 3, 5" indicating the word Brown occurs in rows 1, 3, and 5. The formula also needs to work in case there is only one match as well.
I tried using the below array formula:
={MATCH(FALSE,ISERROR(SEARCH(B1,'Working List of Vendors'!$A$1:$A$5)),0)}
But it would only return the first occurrence of the match which in this case would be row 1, or "1"
Formula To Count Occurrences Of Multiple Elements Within A String
Oct 9, 2009I have a number of records that have in one cell a string of the form 1,2,3 etc (up to 10) representing conditions that have been met. There are a number of options available for producing reports on all of the other attributes in a record but now we wish to add this element as well.
The reports I can produce using VBA and the INSTR function, however on the summary page where, a total of all records matching available criteria is shown, depending upon drop down items being selected, I need to add this element to the equation as well. The existing conditions are counted using SUMPRODUCT and a combination of IF statements and work fine.
As there is an option to create a report for both AND and OR, e.g. if condition 1 and 2 and 3 apply include in the report, or if condition 1 or 2 or 3 apply include in the report
The conditions are selected using a check box and a drop down list to select the AND/OR condition.
I have been trying various combinations of database functions, countif, find and cannot get them to evaluate. I suspect that it may be beyond my reach to use a formula and I will need to use VBA with a Worksheet_Change macro to achieve what I want, or alternatively redesign the layout to store the conditions differently, however if anyone has any ideas for a formula I would much appreciate hearing from you.
A sample worksheet illustrates how the data is currently shown. The string in the record column is created using VBA and then inserted into the actual record.

Having 1 Column Add Up Word Occurrences From 2 Other Columns And Sort?
Sep 20, 2013So, I have two columns on a sheet that all contain drop down boxes for various information. We'll refer to them as column 1 and column 2.
In column 3, I want to have the highest instances of those words sorted with the highest on top, and downward from there, along with the number of times it appears in either column 1 or 2. (And I want the sorting to be dynamic, i.e. when I change what's in column 1 or 2, it will re-rank them according to highest number)
i.e.
Column1 Column2 Column3 (Column4-#)

I have the drop downs and what not for the 1st 2 columns, I just need to know how to make 3 & 4 happen.

Counting Occurrences Of Text String
Dec 11, 2006I have a spreadsheet which consists of Sheet 1 and Sheet 2.

In Sheet 2 I have a table showing January through to December in a column and the different country names across the top in one row.
I want the Table in Sheet 2 to count how many times England (for example) occurs in Column I and to indicate that as a numeric value.

Count SUM Occurrences By Month
Nov 3, 2006I've set up a trial sample register to monitor progress.
Column A contains date of receipt
Column B contains data of report
Column C contains deadline
Column D contains a formula to indicate whether the deadline was achieved, or force the cell to be blank if no date was entered,
=IF(C2="","",IF(C2>=B2,"Yes","No"))
Columns E to P contain other information.
So far ok.
I want to create a summary by month., giving the number of samples received each month, which I did by extracting the month from column A =month(A2), but i also want the number which met the deadline.
How do I count the number of Yes for each month?
Count Number Of Occurrences
Dec 27, 2006I have a somewhat large spreadsheet that is imported from an AS/400 database which shows the number of times something is being used. It lists the object in a row for each use. For instance, if the object is being used 4 times, there would be four rows of this object's name as well as a 0, 1, 2, 3 next to the correct row. Where it is being used is listed in the H Column.
I'm just trying to count the number of times each object is used and where it is used and list it out in another worksheet. Like this:
Object 1, 4 uses, Place 1 2 3 and 4.
Can someone point me in the right direction in terms of where to start with this? I don't mind giving it a shot in terms of the coding but I'm somewhat at a loss in terms of the general "how to".

Feb 25, 2014Iam doing a market report for real estate. I have attached a file for reference. I am trying to track the Active Listings within a given time period and within a specific zip code. Unfortunately my local MLS does not track historical data on Active Listings, and therefore I have to use the Listing Date and the date it no longer went active to determine which listings were active in a given time period. Some of the listings are still active and therefore do not have a "No Longer Active" date. These listings will need to be counted as well.

Count Number Of Occurrences In Excel
Apr 22, 2014In a datafile I have one column containing a trip 'origin' and a second column contains 'destinations'. I want to count how many times each trip occurs (so the same origin/destination pair). This is doable using COUNTIFS but unfortunately respondents did not provide consequent origins and destinations. I encountered the following formulations
-Alfastraat, Amsterdam
-Alfastraat 5, Amsterdam
-Alfastraat 5, 1021AB Amsterdam
-Amsterdam, Alfastraat
Since the format is different among and within respondents functions containing LEFT, RIGHT, MID are not useful (at least, my trials did fail). I found a VBA-script for a FUZZYVLOOKUP which sounded promising. Unfortunately the data is stored on a remote PC without VBA on it.
Is there a way to count the occurrences of trips given the circumstances?
Count The Number Of Consecutive Occurrences
Nov 18, 2008I have an excel spreadsheet to record employee holiday and sickness figures.
It is set on as a grid e.g. column A stores all the dates and then employee names are used as column header.

Countif will count the number of time absent appears in the column however I need it to only recognise it if it is only 28 days in a row.
